Amarnath Charugundla

System Engineer at Tata Consultancy

Unified management and cost-effectiveness lead to positive experiences and future savings

Improvement is necessary wherein the memory or storage should not breach 90%, because if breached, it becomes unmanageable. We have to set alerts or CPU triggering for 95% for the first warning. Other activities on nodes or file systems should be properly maintained. We must monitor the dashboard for P1, P2 alerts in the Nutanix Unified Storage (NUS) file share system including SMB, NFS, objects, and blocks. Attention should be maintained for any alerts such as CPU, memory, and RAM alerts, as exceeding these creates issues within teams. If triggered to 95% and forgotten, it crosses the SLA breach, causing disturbances to application, web, and platform teams. Continuous monitoring on the Nutanix dashboard is essential. Even a highly experienced person in Nutanix Unified Storage (NUS) cannot provide a 10 rating out of 10 because it is a vast system. I would rate it eight from my perspective.

Experience significant cost savings through robust storage and seamless scalability

DBA Competency Manager at 4iApps

The usability of Oracle Cloud Object Storage could be enhanced, as retrieving data can be complicated unless one knows the correct method. For instance, when taking a backup for cloning purposes, there are specific steps that need to be followed, which many people are not aware of. This process could be simplified. The retrievability for Oracle Cloud Object Storage could be made simpler through the implementation of a GUI interface to retrieve data. This would make it more user-friendly. The setup for Oracle Cloud Object Storage could be more straightforward. Currently, we need to use standard formats for cURL scripts and other components.
