Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Object Storage
We use it during development of web and mobile solutions for clients to handle media and file storage. Its being used mainly by the whole organisation because during testing of application other department help us it in testing and they interact with file upload which is most times implemented under the hood with IBM Cloud Object Storage. It helps to efficiently eradicate tedious experience I have in past for file upload and retrieval which I am given a public url and private url to have live access to the file. I use it in projects for storing prospective users and returning users images, supporting documents which often is in doc format or pdf format. It also provide helper function for multiple file upload.
Pros
- Multiple file upload helper
- Ability to store any file extension
- Rich documentation to assist in implementation of IBM Cloud Object Storage
- Updated Sample Code for implemention in Major programming language
Cons
- In terms of large file size, it takes time upload the file, though i saw a feature which i can use to compress the file size
- Percentage completion for file upload maybe a socket connection to have real time access to file upload
- There is highly reduce video tutorial content of IBM Cloud Object Storage on youtube or Udemy. It will be more easy to integrate if there is
- Its cheaper compare to what others charges because I was not initially charge until the firm I work with there data exceed the free zone so I had enough objects to add and delete
- There is not much developers that is familiar with IBM Cloud storage due to its reduce learning system available online which he just have to go through the documentation not going through youtube videos which most of us like doing. So extra time has to be allocated if a new developer come onboard in order to first learn how IBM Cloud [Object] Storage work
- Its a bit difficult to find IBM Cloud Developer
I have made use of IBM Cloudant which i have use to store record which is NOSQL database. Also, make use IBM Cloud Foundry to host ReactJs( Single Page Application) and static web page . I have also make use of toolchain which i use to implement continuous integration when i upload the static web page. I have not had regret i made use of this features. I have also make us of Watson assistant for convulutional chat.
