Gluster in production.. stories from the front line

Hi all,

I am Interested to know if anyone here is using gluster in a production environment, and what you are using it for specifically?

I have personally used it in the past to solve a problem using a distributed replicated volume and it was extremely well received at that site (after it was implemented!), but working in other environments I am finding it difficult to convince others of its benefits.

I personally think it is an excellent fit in many scenarios and am currently looking at potentially replacing NFS in some instances with native glusterfs.. so was wondering if anyone has headed down this path and what their experiences have been?

Thanks in advance.
