D2IQ Reviews

D2iQs are stable and dependable. It performs well with no compatibility hiccups.

The lack of documentation and support is frustrating.

D2iQ solves the difficulties of managing distributed systems. This has revolutionized our business by providing automated operations, scalability, and reliability.

I love that I can spin up a cluster using industry-standard tools in minutes and, without any configuration, have a centralized dashboard and logging capability for all my managed k8s clusters. Also, once installed, you communicate with your clusters the same way you are used to, i.e. using kubectl. It's this none wrapping of open source technologies that I think makes D2iQ stand out from its competitors.

There is not much that I dislike about D2iQ's offering, but if I had to point out something, it might be their documentation. Although they have better documentation than some other companies, they could certainly improve on the sections that explain in detail how their platform works. They do have great regular blog posts that go into a lot of this, but collating a lot of this into a single place would be a great idea.

If you are looking for a tool that removes the hard part of setting up and managing a cluster with production-grade tools, then look no further than D2iQ Konvoy & Kommander. The ability to be able to manage multiple clusters on different cloud providers using managed or non-managed services or even on air-gapped servers within a single interface, I think, is just brilliant. I would highly recommend D2iQ to anyone running production k8s clusters.

In the world of multi-cloud environments, the fact that D2iQ is cloud-agnostic means that I don't need to think much about which cloud provider I am running my clusters on. I, therefore, have more time to spend on the actual application than on what it's running on, which is brilliant. D2iQ gives me the ability to spin up a cluster already configured and ready to go with all the tools I need to run a production-grade application in k8s.

.The capability of dcos to provide open source technology under a supported umbrella which fits production use

Business charge back reporting not available and latest technology comes with a bit of delay

We are reducing the development time and increasing productivity along with maximizing uptime without human intervention

I lvoe that all of my apps are found in one simple location.

Nothing thus far. Will keep you updated with any changes, comments or concerns.

I'm very excited to see the future of how this product will benefit our company!

The fact that we can pull all the this information into one location. Making it more simple to access everything within a click/button. You want efficiency? Well i've found it.

It's highly configurable, flexible and great looking piece of software. DC/OS is based on few well know and proven Open Source projects like marathon, mesos, docker, ha-proxy and many others. It guarantee that everything is well tested and even with free version you can find a log of community support if you encounter problems.

Web UI looks great but it still need some work if it's about reliability and services state accuracy. Documentation about some low level mechanisms is missing, external user sources like Acitve Directory are available only in payed version. It's hard to deploy a lot of application at once.

If you'r looking for container orchestration solution it's (in my opinion) best you can find.

Container orchestration, high availability, cloud independent environment for our apps.

The container view feature is amazing.We can add as many services on the top of core OS and it won't budge.Another great feature is the whole source code is open source,so we can peek into or change the code according to the need.Also fast data transfer,there is less headache to restarting and thinking about the corrupted data.

We can have other options with less/more features like this on the options as well.Also there is no build in application stack we can choose from for frameworks like flask,django,bottle,react,node.

It's a must use software.Don't think much about it.

We we using DC/OS for storing data.The big reason was ease of use and stacking of data clusters,fast data transfers.We can create multiple services running without a glitch.The community is very engaging and responsive regarding queries.There are many documentation for this product if you are stuck somewhere.Every cluster can serve some purpose.There is a lot of customization available.There are tools to moniter the services,There are api's available for ready use.It is highly customizable.For large and complex project we can increase or decrease the resource based on the heavy or light usage.In case of data corruption,we can even backup the whole data.There is also an option to customize according IOT apps.The dashboard gives you whole overview of the resource usage,stress levels,jobs running so that we can analyze which jobs are eating up more resource and do the right action.The is must use software.

D2IQ core asset is its ability to operate Kubernetes clusters in many environments like cloud computing and local servers. The flexiblity gives me the centralized control panel to manage all my deployments that are Kubernetes-based and as a result, simplifies management and reduces the level of complexity

D2IQ does possess that high learning curve in comparison with some other Kubernetes platforms. A cluster set-up and its management took up more time than communicated in the beginning because there were no good available and easy-to-use documents. As there are articles and pieces of materials, the best option would be to synergize them into the ultimate guide that can help bosses especially new bosses.

In the new role as a D2IQ user, I can truly appreciate the multi-cluster management solution which is very important part of my work. This simplest way is having one pane glass for all my Kubernetes deployments - I can save the time and remove the errors when working with all the complex infrastructures.

Support of several frameworks for scheduling different kinds of workloads and it's 2 level scheduling which results in great efficiency for managing resources. Service discovery, informative dashboards are well designed. Most of the essential features for running containers like service discovery, autoscaling, application configuration, and secrets management etc were out of the box and well designed.

The CLI is not very robust and UI for marathon framework was very buggy.

If you are looking for an efficient platform for microservices based infrastructure and trying to improve resource utilization , DCOS is a great choice to consider.

Used it for managing a cluster of on-premise servers to run several microservices style apps. This tool provided a great insight into the infrastructure utilization and helped in real-time health monitoring.

.Mesos is Easy to install and setup, ease of use and configuration

Software/user licensing and costs could be a little less

Container management, deployments to test environments

Data driven app development and container features. Interoperability with multiple cloud service providers, containers (Docker for e.g.) and Virtual services.

Additionally, interoperability with other container development engines is a huge plus. For e.g. you could have docker containers but still be able to use DC/OS to manage and orchestrate them.

Performance - Stability, reliability and compatibility issues in 1.8 version.

Consider upgrading to version 1.11. we did this and it has helped us overcome most of the performance issues that were encountered with 1.8. Additional recommendation would be to upgrade first before integrating with any of the continuous monitoring solutions.
