Descriptions


Filebase


Filebase is one of the next generation cloud storage providers. Offering a layer of storage management on decentralized solutions to make the transition from web2 to web3 feel like a breeze.

Filebase leverages the power of Blockchain to ensure global storage redundancy by utilising a couple of decentralized solutions like Storj. Unique to this approach is the aggregation model, which, even in regular storage land isn’t used as much as you’d like to see. Bundling services like this means you’ll move slower in terms of feature parity since you can only offer functionality offered by all underlying providers.

Filebase offers an afforable, flat-based price for egress as well as stored bytes.

With their S3 compatible API, Filebase’s solution looks like a great alternative to Openstack, if you’re not worried about performance or uptime SLA’s.


OVH Object Storage


OVH has been around in the cloud hosting world for a very long time. In the 20 years they’ve been in the hosting industry, they have certainly earned their stripes.

OVH’s public cloud storage offering is quite literally a hosted version of Openstack Swift in the past, they’re putting more effort into creating a better value-add, with slick documentation and to-the-point FAQ.

A big advantage for European companies is that OVH’s Object Storage is completely GDPR compliant.

Clients of OVH’s storage product are not disclosed, making privacy sort of a feature.
