We performed a comparison between Amazon EBS (Elastic Block Store) and Oracle Cloud Object Storage based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about NetApp, Google, Nasuni and others in Cloud Storage."The product comes with multiple central port installations like gp2 and gp3."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy to manage."
"When it comes to valuable features, ease of use would be number one."
"The most important feature is the volume types in those hundred EDS. For example, if you need a volume with high IOPS, you should choose an io2 or io2 Block Express volume type. The default volume type for EBS is GP3, which is a good balance of performance and price for most workloads."
"The durability and snapshot capabilities are good."
"The product’s most valuable feature is IOPS."
"The solution provides big space that is reasonably priced."
"One of the most valuable was snapshots. There were scenarios in which the whole EC2 crashed, or we were unable to use it for some time, but the data on the mounted volumes were crucial to us. So, at that time, snapshots were very helpful."
"The solution's most valuable features are its speed, unlimited space, and simplicity of use."
"The most valuable features of the tool are scalability and security."
"One key feature is that you can make buckets private, requiring pre-authentication and using a specific URL for access. Additionally, the buckets are encrypted by default. The flexibility of public or private buckets and how you grant access are vital security features."
"In Amazon EBS, it is difficult to reduce the space chosen by the customer. The cost increases the moment the size of the storage increases, and I will have to pay for two TB of the tool instead of one TB."
"It would be better to analyze and find a way to merge both the file systems of Linux and Windows."
"It is hard to access EBS volumes in different Availability Zones (AZs) because most EBS volumes are created in a single AZ."
"The features could be improved."
"The cost of using EBS is high compared to other cloud vendors such as Tencent Cloud or CARI Cloud. Some costs are generated immediately and some are likely to increase."
"It would be good if the solution added a button to increase the size and make the EC2 machine recognize the increased capacity of the EBS."
"I think performance can be improved."
"Amazon EBS needs to improve its user interface for data transactions."
"Sometimes, there are glitches with applying policies. Even when the policy is correct, it might not work consistently. We need to troubleshoot to see if it's a user error or if the policy itself needs adjustment. It usually works after refreshing, but that inconsistency is a minor complexity."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage needs to have an additional bucket for security."
"The solution should provide more customization and the possibility of doing more manual tasks."
