Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Object Storage

I work as a reseller. Then I have supported many projects to offload on premises data to cloud.
It presents a good relation between costs and capacity therefore is a good solution for long term data retention.
Also some "cloud native" customers rely on this as a "data store".

Pros

  • Cost x Benefit
  • Availability

Cons

  • The costs for put and get operations may have a huge impact. It should be explained with more details to avoid pitfalls for new users.
  • For example, we had a user that was expending a lot of money with database storage on IBM Cloud. We created a workflow to offload the data from database to object storage. This saved the customer money and helped us to retain the customer on IBM Cloud.
Cost and convenience.
Backup is a good use case because you can move your data between storage tiers. Then, active data is kept "hot" and inactive data can be moved to "cold" vault, allowing to save money.
