Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Object Storage

I'm currently new to it but I plan to use it for migrating some of the work I'm currently busy with as it requires the need for cloud migration, the main product is the usage of the company telematics where I have to draw insights for our clients and be able to produce real time results.
  • The safety of data which is the crucial part
  • Receive real-time results
  • The use of other useful features like AI tools
  • Integration with other cloud services
  • Limited customization options
  • User interface, I had a hard time finding out how to delete an instance that I've created
  • Right now we at the testing phase
The speed of data transfer is directly proportional to the available bandwidth which works exception in terms of reliable real-time data feedback and also network reliability.
Can't provide feedback on that since we at the testing phase for now

  • IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service
The experience has been without any hurdles so far but we will see as time goes by as it's still too early to say anything productive now.
I would say it's the large-scale data storage because I'm able to store a large amount of unstructured data which is a secondary backup for the company, what I tend to see as not so great is the lack of storing structured data. It is cost effective as I pay for what I use which is very convenient
