CLOUD STORAGE · CLOUDHAI

Give your data
the right home.

Choose storage around how your application reads, writes and retains data. Compare attached volumes and object storage, then include transfer and recovery in the cost picture.

DESIGNED AROUND YOUR WORKLOAD

Where this solution fits.

01

Block storage

Discuss attached volumes for an operating system, database or application filesystem.

02

Object storage

Discuss API-based storage for uploaded files, media, archives and backup objects.

03

Lifecycle planning

Define how long data is retained, who can access it, and how deletion is controlled.

UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE

Make the right trade-off.

Choose the approach that matches your software, data and operating responsibilities.

OPTION 01

Block storage

Volumes used by an operating system or application filesystem

OPTION 02

Object storage

Objects stored and retrieved through an API

FROM REQUIREMENT TO DESIGN

Capacity is only one part of storage

Two applications with the same data size can have very different access patterns. Share file sizes, request frequency and database requirements so capacity, performance and cost can be considered together.
