Object Storage

CDB Object Storage is an S3-compatible service for storing media files, logs, backups, AI/ML datasets, and other data types.

Storage types

CDB Object Storage offers three storage types:

  • S3 Fast – high-performance S3-compatible storage for AI/ML workloads, IoT telemetry, and latency-sensitive applications
  • S3 Standard – general-purpose S3-compatible storage for backups and content delivery
  • SFTP – legacy file-based storage accessed via SFTP protocol, with the same pricing as S3 Standard

When creating a storage, the location name indicates the storage type.
