File Storage

File Storage is a storage method that allows multiple users or applications to access shared files simultaneously. It is ideal for storing and managing both structured and unstructured data, such as documents, images, and videos. Files are conveniently organized into folders and subfolders, similar to a traditional operating system. This makes navigation easy and ensures fast, reliable access to data within teams and systems. File Storage thus provides an accessible and scalable solution for efficient collaboration and data storage.

File Storage is an accessible and convenient solution for organizations that need centralized file storage. Files are stored in a recognizable folder structure, making collaboration and file management easy. This makes it ideally suited for shared work environments, back-ups, and document management. Unlike Block Storage and Object Storage, File Storage focuses on ease of use and direct accessibility via standard protocols, such as NFS or SMB. This makes it a smart choice for IT teams that value stability, simplicity, and reliability in their daily data management. It offers advanced rights management and you can easily control storage amounts by setting quotas. Users can easily recover files themselves via ‘previous versions’ if snapshots are also configured. This significantly reduces the IT department’s workload and benefits user satisfaction.
