Product

Simplicity, affordability and predictability. Three things we can guarantee with our Object Storage solution.

You can seamlessly expand your on-premises storage to the cloud and efficiently secure, manage, and retain your data for the long term with our S3 compatible Object Storage. We can also provide protection against single device failure by splitting your data over multiple storage servers, meaning you’ll always have a copy of your data ready to use.

Pricing that's simple and straightforward

Calculating pricing for object storage providers can be complex, and we aim to simplify this by being transparent with our costings, with no smoke or mirrors. We provide our S3 compatible storage at a fraction of the cost of other public cloud providers such as AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage and IBM Cloud.

If you’ve ever tried to use one of the calculators at any of the above providers, you’ll see that they are far from simple. To just get a cost you’ll need to know how many PUT/COPY/POST/LIST requests you will use, how many GET/SELECT Requests and other requests, as well as how much data you put in and how much data you pull out amongst many other sub charges.

Object storage vs traditional storage systems

Object storage delivers limitless scale because — unlike the addressing hierarchy used with traditional file storage — object-based storage employs a flat file system that has no built-in limits. It is easier to understand object-based storage when you compare it to more traditional forms of storage – file and block storage.

File storage

Stores data in folders, which simulates how paper documents are stored
When data needs to be accessed, a computer system must look for it using its path in the folder structure

Block storage

Splits a file into separate data blocks, and stores each of these blocks as a separate data unit with its own address
The storage system can find data without needing a path to a folder, and allows data to be split into smaller pieces and stored in a distributed manner
Whenever a file is accessed, the storage system software assembles the file from the required blocks

Object storage

Data blocks that make up a file or “object”, together with its metadata, are all kept together
Extra metadata is added to each object, which makes it possible to access data with no hierarchy
All objects are placed in a unified address space, and to find an object, users provide a unique ID
