The benefits of OCI Object Storage
1. Virtually unlimited scalability
Scale your storage capacity as your data grows. Store and retrieve vast amounts of data without worrying about capacity limitations.
2. Flexible storage tiers
Leverage distinct storage class tiers to maximize access performance where appropriate and minimize storage costs where possible.
3. Greater data durability and resilience
Experience minimal downtime as each object is stored on multiple systems and across multiple data centers and regions, improving data resilience and availability.
Featured OCI Object Storage capabilities
