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.
Digital Ocean is one of the few companies that grew over time and actually made it to the champions leage of Cloud Hosting Providers. It’s only logical DO should offer an object storage solution.
Digital Ocean has established itself over the years as being developer friendly, posting an abundance of useful Sysadmin/developer articles. The value and quality of their blog closely represents their product, which is clean, has good concise documentation, and works great.
Their clients include InfluxDB and Edge Compute company Section; (see our srvrlss profile on them).
