A “TURNKEY” SOLUTION THAT ADAPTS TO YOUR NEEDS
Object storage is capable of adapting to any variation in data volume:
you pay only for the volume actually used, without hidden charges.
Unlike traditional storage, object storage is based on a system of objects and metadata.
Data is stored in the form of “objects” to which defined properties are applied in accordance with your needs:
REPLICATION PROFILE
Is data accessible from just one region, or replicated across many?
LIFE CYCLE
Do files have an expiry date?
VERSIONING POLICY
How many versions of a file are to be kept?
ACCESS CONTROL
Who can read, edit and delete a file?
Cegedim’s object storage service lets you maintain control over datasecurityand locationwhile enjoying the advantages of the cloud and object storage, such as scalability, accessibilityand simplicity. It also provides a solution to capacity issues by providing an unlimited, low-cost storage space. The scalabilityof the environment is transparent to end users, who communicate directly with the system through an API.

FREQUENT USE CASES
Object storage is suited to the storage of “unstructured” data; i.e. data that is edited on an occasional basis. It is not suited to transactional data such as databases.
Object storage is an ideal solution for the following uses:
Backup and restoration
Data archiving
Big Data
Storage of numerous or large files (PDFs, images, sound and video recordings, etc.).
