Gluster users - Nov 2013 - GlusterFS Management tools

Hi all,

I am reviewing distributed storage solutions for a client and was wondering
what GUI/Web tools are available out there for configuring, managing and
monitoring GlusterFS clusters?

Also, how does GlusterFS stack up against solutions like Ceph and Hadoop?

Thanks for any input you may have on this.

The way to manage GlusterFS is to use puppet-gluster [1] or manually
by command line. There is also ovirt integration, but I've never used it.
I strongly recommend puppet-gluster, but I'm biased because I'm the
author.

I like GlusterFS. I'm not going to bash anything else that isn't
proprietary storage. You can google to find comparisons. The lack of a
SPOF metadata server is one nice element of GlusterFS.
