Azure Storage VS GlusterFS

Microsoft Azure Storage is another option for hosting a static website, with a range of pricing plans to suit different needs. It offers features like custom domains and SSL certificates, and it's highly scalable and reliable. Also Azure Storage can be more expensive than some other options, especially for high-traffic websites. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

I'd start here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/storage/ and mainly look at either FILE (for ease of use, though probably not great if you want to host the share to your community), or BLOB - if you're semi-comfortable with cloud computing and might want to setup a static website or something hosting this content. The next big question is tier - if only a few people are ever going to look at this stuff... Source: about 3 years ago

I am a fan of Gearman to schedule and dispatch distributed jobs, Redis as a collaborative blackboard, and GlusterFS to share models across multiple systems and make bulk data available across the entire system (usually referenced in the blackboard as a pathname). Source: about 1 year ago

If you're not relying on support, then I would probably standardize on the latest packages available from gluster.org. Source: almost 3 years ago
