What is IBM Cloud Block Storage?
Block storage, sometimes referred to as block-level storage, is a
technology that is used to store data files on Storage Area Networks
(SANs) or cloud-based storage environments. Block storage breaks up data into blocks and then stores those blocks as
separate pieces, each with a unique identifier. The SAN places those
blocks of data wherever it is most efficient. Block storage also decouples data from user environments, allowing that
data to be spread across multiple environments. This creates multiple
paths to the data and allows the user to retrieve it quickly.
IBM Cloud Block Storage
is designed to help partners, enterprises, and organizations with
their block storage needs, offering flash-backed, local disk performance
with SAN persistence and durability, customizable IOPs, and predictable
billing.

IBM Cloud Block Storage Review
- Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service)
- Both services are pretty much identical when it comes to their offerings and specifically in their availability, durability and scalability of block storage.
- AWS S3 stacks someone better in most clients given the vast offerings of AWS within the rest of their solutions including real-time data processing, ETL capablities, performance monitoring. Moreover, integration in applications for ML ops or IoT is also slightly more competitive in most

The value of the IBM Block Storage for Aputek
The biggest difference that I have been able to find from other services external to IBM has been the domain, experience and application of the technology at the datacenter scale that allows [us] to be quite sure that the data will be in good collection. But I insist that the most important value I have been able to find is the variable and high IOPS setting, which virtually allows you to handle large volumes, that is, big data without major problems and we walk that way.
IBM Cloud Object Storage is better suited for application development and easy to use from a higher level.
IBM Cloud Block Storage is better suited as block storage as a service and totally integrated with the infrastructure as a service, making it easy to deploy and used either itemized or integrated into other IaaS offerings.

Being part of an organization that has a sizable footprint in IBM Cloud, the IBM Cloud Block Storage is a natural choice. Also, IBM Cloud Block Storage's native integration with Aspera is an added bonus for use cases needing fast, reliable data storage and transfer solutions.
N/A. IBM Cloud Block Storage was the best solution as we already use IBM Cloud for the information that would utilise it.
