Azure Blob Storage vs. Tencent Cloud File Storage

Blob storage is well suited to hosting/sharing zipped files rather than several smaller files, as folder enumeration/listing is not supported. Files uploaded are case-sensitive, so users need to be educated on the correct naming convention format if they are delegating the file-sharing process outside of IT.

Tencent Storage is highly recommendable to any company that requires a total solution to any challenges with data storage. It is flexible to deploy and work with this platform with high-performance services that cater to all our file storage needs. Our teams find it easy to customize this platform to offer various workload disks that can be secured separately with passwords.

• If we are transferring huge amount of data (outbound), it can get quite expensive.
• With new features being added constantly, although a good thing, at times it becomes difficult to keep up with the changes. Documentation needs to keep UpToDate and should include best practices.
• Performance can be improved especially when it comes to cold storage.

Blob storage is fairly simple, with several different options/settings that can be configured. The file explorer has enhanced its usability. Some areas could be improved, such as providing more details or stats on how many times a file has been accessed. It is an obvious choice if you're already using Azure/Entra.

Microsoft has improved its customer service standpoint over the years. The ability to chat with an issue, get a callback, schedule a call or work with an architecture team(for free) is a huge plus. I can get mentorship and guidance on where to go with my environment without pushy sales tactics. This is very refreshing. Typically support can get me to where I need to be on the first contact, which is also nice.

Azure Blob Storage is the best choice to store files when the app runs in Azure. It also has some advantages over S3, like Shared Access Signatures, that make it easy to control access to files directly via a URL. Azure Blob Storage is very fast and we have not had any major issues with it after using it for several years.

The cost of purchasing this platform and maintaining is relatively low as compared to similar tools. Our teams across our company find it easy to share files with our partners and this has saved us a lot of time. Document and file storage gives us peace of mind since we are sure that our data is under a safe system.
