Why have you not included S3-style cloud object storage in your options ? This is arguably the biggest revolution in storage of the last couple decades.

It depends what type of data? SSD is a good option for production data. Other options would be a better choice for backup data and archives.

What tools are fellow manufacturing companies using for MDM of MRO data? Maintenance parts, etc...? We use Sphera today, which was implemented many years ago when IHS had Struxure (which was later purchased by Sphera). Looking for feedback on alternatives.

My mid-size organization is pushing to open our ERP to 3PLs. We have a Tier 1 ERP that doesn't have a portal designed for this purpose. The ERP does allow for significant configuration of access privileges, so I believe we could create profiles with the right access restrictions. Although, we don't have significant ROI on this and it's only temporary until we build the APIs for ERP ERP data flow. We are a small IT team though, and are starting from scratch on APIs so that will take a while. Thoughts or Advice?
