Backblaze Improves Performance with Breakthrough Storage Cloud Innovation
02 Novembre 2023 - 2:00PM
Backblaze, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLZE), the leading specialized storage
cloud, today announced a new innovation on data upload technology
it calls “shard stash,” which delivers significantly improved
upload speeds with small file uploads up to 30% faster than AWS S3.
The increased speeds benefit all Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage
customers, especially those who rely on small file uploads (1MB or
less) which are common in many use cases including backup and
archive workflows. Many data protection software providers split
data into smaller, fixed-size blocks for upload to cloud storage,
meaning users can expect to see significantly faster upload speeds
for smaller files without any change to durability, availability,
or pricing.
“Veeam® is dedicated to working alongside our partners to
innovate and create a united front against cyber threats and
attacks. The new performance improvements released by Backblaze for
B2 Cloud Storage furthers our mission to provide radical resilience
to our joint customers,” said Andreas Neufert, Vice President of
Product Management, Alliances, at Veeam.
Specific benefits of the performance upgrades include:
- Secures data in offsite backup faster
- Frees up time for IT administrators to work on other
projects
- Decreases congestion on network bandwidth
“Backblaze’s pioneering approach delivers cloud storage at 1/5th
the price versus legacy vendors, and our latest innovation
maintains those savings while delivering 10-30% faster performance
versus AWS depending on the file size,” said Gleb Budman, Backblaze
CEO and Chairperson of the Board. “Bringing this performance
upgrade to our customers means they have more time and budget to
put toward fueling their organizations’ success.”
The “shard stash” performance improvements combine economy and
performance by leveraging the speed of solid state drives (SSD) to
quickly ingest short-term copies of new data (the shard stash)
while hard disk drive (HDD) ingest copies it for long-term storage.
The new technology has been fully rolled out to Backblaze’s global
data regions. These are the latest in a series of upgrades
announced by the company, with additional B2 Cloud Storage download
performance enhancements planned over the coming months.
These speed improvement claims were validated through a rigorous
testing methodology which is explained in detail along with more
information about the performance improvements and implementation
on the company’s blog.
