We use IBM Cloud CR and COS services extensively in our microservices. Our requirements are mostly around auto-scalability and security. All IBM Cloud CR images are scanned and then made available.

IBM COS service also has various subscription plans and hot/cold storage options. Both enable our business solution to integrate seamlessly. IBM COS scales to millions or requests (GET/PUT calls). It has SDK as well as REST integration options that are very suitable for us to automate and operate as well.
