Wasabi


Wasabi is a relatively new kid on the block in the storage space. However, don’t let that fool you. Wasabi has a very strong storage offering with a lot of features, bells, and whistles. Their storage pricing is what gives them a true edge over other providers. Their list pricing is 80% cheaper than Amazon S3’s storage, for example.

Customers of Wasabi include Kaleidoscope, 7Wonders Cinema and Novus Insight.

Wasabi has S3 compatibilty built into the storage interface.
