It was almost 3 years ago that my open source storage project went into production. In that time it’s been running 24/7 serving as highly available solid state storage for hundreds of VMs and several virtualisation clusters across our two main sites. I’m happy to report that the clusters have been operating very successfully since their conception. Since moving away from proprietary ‘black box’ vendor SANs, we haven’t had a single SAN issue, storage outage.
