What are Object Storage Solutions?
Object storage solutions are systems designed to store large amounts of unstructured data, such as multimedia files, backups, logs, and archives, in a highly scalable and accessible manner. These platforms break data into individual objects, each containing the data itself, metadata, and a unique identifier, which makes retrieval and management more efficient. Object storage is typically used for cloud storage environments, where flexibility, scalability, and redundancy are key. It allows organizations to store vast amounts of data with high durability, often offering features like automated data tiering, access controls, and encryption. Object storage solutions are ideal for businesses that need cost-effective, scalable, and secure storage for large datasets or growing volumes of unstructured data. Compare and read user reviews of the best Object Storage solutions currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

ActiveScale
Quantum
ActiveScale™ delivers security, resiliency, and accessibility to your data at scale. Data is an asset with its own lifecycle; it is created, consumed, and retained, sometimes indefinitely. Year-over-year data growth of over 40% is challenging organizations to find efficient ways to retain data throughout its lifecycle. Long-term retention requirements in industries such as Life Sciences, Media and Entertainment, Broadcasting, Healthcare, and Financial Services demand data to be available and secure; much of the data being stored is key to market differentiation, product and services support, and raw inputs from sensors, sequencers, cameras, and other devices. To future proof data availability, organizations need to ensure data integrity, infrastructure resiliency and scalability, and continuous and ubiquitous access to data.
