SpiderOak Debuts Cloud Storage Alternative to Amazon S3 Service
SpiderOak claimed that its newly unveiled Nimbus.io, a horizontally scalable open source software for large data storage, is a low-cost alternative to Amazon's S3 cloud storage service.
By making use of parity instead of replication to achieve highly redundant storage with less overhead, the Nimbus.io software differentiates itself from other distributed storage systems. It caters to users' demand for low-cost, off-the-shelf solution for reliable long-term archival data storage and enables developers to make use of bulk storage within their applications at greatly reduced cost.
