Gluster is ~~shit~~ really bad, garage and minio are great. If you want something tested and insanely powerful go with ceph, it has everything. Garage is fine for smaller installations, and it’s very new and not that stable yet.

go with ceph[:] it has everything

I heard running an object store as a filesystem was considered risky, but that’s not why it sometimes hoses your storage.

  Last time I had a problem with ceph losing data was during 0.10, does it still happen?

Ceph isn’t something you want to jump into without research

Darn, Garage is the only one that I successfully deployed a test cluster.

I will dive more carefully into Ceph, the documentation is a bit heavy, but if the effort is worth it…

Thanks.

  I had great experience with garage at first, but it crapped itself after a month, it was like half a year ago and the problem was fixed, still left me with a bit of anxiety.

    You need to know what you are doing with Ceph. It can scale to Exobyte levels but you need to do it right.
