Mark BurgessWhen managing storage infrastructure or storage-heavy applications, the wishlist is usually the same:
- Easily scalable
- Stable and consistent performance
- Secure
- Simple cross-site replication
- Effortless backup & snapshots
- Cost-effective
Sound familiar?
If you’ve ever tried to tick all these boxes on-prem or with your current cloud provider, you know how challenging it can be. Yet, OCI Block Storage delivers all of the above—without the complexity, without the overhead, and without breaking your budget.
Why does this matter?
Here’s a couple of examples how OCI Block Storage stands out:
Easily Scalable – Adjust performance on demand by increasing or decreasing VPUs, optimising both speed and cost, quickly and easily.
Cross-Site Replication in Clicks – Select your volume, pick a region, and click ‘Save Changes’. No complex setup, just instant replication to a remote OCI region.
Effortless Backups – Supports full, incremental, local, and cross-site backups with automated scheduling and retention.
Built-in Security – All data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 by default, ensuring compliance and protection.
OCI Block Storage simplifies management while reducing costs, and we love the ability to automate it with the OCI Ansible collection.
