Type: Higher deployment of block storage in complex operations and performance-critical transactions

Block storage divides data into fixed-sized blocks, each identified by a unique address. Predominantly used in storage area network (SAN) environments, it offers high performance and low latency, making it ideal for scenarios requiring fast, efficient storage operations such as database storage and transaction processing. Block storage devices are highly versatile and can be treated as independent disks that support various file systems or databases. File storage organizes data into a hierarchical file and folder structure, a familiar model for users navigating operating systems. This storage type is accessible through standard protocols such as NFS (Network File System) and SMB (Server Message Block), allowing for easy sharing and management of files across networked devices. Ideal for document storage, content management, and development environments, file storage offers a straightforward and user-friendly way to store and retrieve data. Object storage manages data as objects instead of blocks or files. Each object includes the data, metadata, and a globally unique identifier, enabling complex data manipulation, high scalability, and rich metadata services. Object storage is perfectly suited for unstructured data such as multimedia content, web content, and data backups.
