Service provides customers with large capacity cloud storage from a
local provider in the Southeast

ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–DC
BLOX
, a multi-tenant data center company offering robust
connectivity and storage solutions for distributed IT in the
Southeastern U.S., today announces the immediate availability of the DC
BLOX Cloud Storage
service. The service enables customers to reduce
the cost, complexity and risk of off-site data backups with simple,
predictable pricing and scalable remote data storage.

Widespread industry digitization is creating unprecedented growth in
data, bringing numerous advantages but also significant costs for
businesses. Related challenges commonly faced by businesses include the
complexity of adding to storage infrastructure, and managing multiple
copies of data for processing, analysis, backup, long-term archive and
more. Businesses experiencing this rapid growth can now leverage DC
BLOX’s reliable and local cloud storage to avoid capital outlay and
proactively protect their critical data at a lower cost than comparable
public cloud storage providers like Amazon Web Services or Microsoft
Azure storage options.

The new service supports both object storage (S3 API) and file storage
(SMB) applications, with local storage in any of DC BLOX’s data centers
in the Southeast U.S. The service allows customers to protect data with
geographic diversity from their business’s premises and from within a DC
BLOX data center across the DC BLOX network.

“We designed DC BLOX Cloud Storage for businesses in the Southeast that
want their data to stay local, secure and protected against both
systemic and natural disasters,” states Chris Gatch, Chief Technology
Officer of DC BLOX. “Our solution leverages best-in-breed object storage
technology, enabling highly efficient, reliable storage at scale, and a
file system solution for compatibility with a wide range of
applications.”

The DC BLOX Storage service is an attractive option to public cloud
providers because of its simple predictable pricing, higher performance,
low-price file storage, choice of specific storage location, private
network connectivity and local support. Data can even be replicated to a
second DC BLOX data center over its high-speed private network for no
extra charge.

DC BLOX continues to provide top-tier benefits to customers of its
connected data centers. The addition of a robust cloud storage service
supports the company’s mission to meet the needs of an ever-expanding
industry with burgeoning content, data and application demands, while
remaining close to consumers in growing cities.
