Microsoft Azure Object Storage's strengths are development, redundancy, cost-efficiency, metadata access, API flexibility, reliability, performance, scalability, security, redundancy, and ease of use. Organizations appreciate cloud accessibility, integration with Microsoft Office 365, encryption, REST API access, and geo-redundant features. Users find value in scalability, block storage, lifecycle management, and compliance certifications. Its object storage capabilities support unstructured data, enabling efficient data retrieval and management, ensuring robust storage and data integrity across zones and regions.
- "The benefits of using Microsoft Azure Object Storage include being able to keep all unstructured data in the storage, allowing users to access it from anywhere by configuring the storage explorer in their system, based on the policies we apply during the implementation."
- "For security solutions in Microsoft Azure, I particularly appreciate Microsoft Azure AI foundation."
- "Azure cloud services are quite an easy solution with many tools to operate, such as the CLI, software development kit, and the portal."
Microsoft Azure Object Storage could improve performance by addressing object re-use and cold to hot storage data transfers. Users find the interface and pricing structure complex. Technical support response times and integration with other vendors need enhancement. The replication process could be streamlined, and there's a need for better tooling for cost calculations and usage estimates. Improvements in speed, stability, API connectivity, and customer service are also areas of concern for users.
- "The improvement needed for Microsoft Azure Object Storage is to reduce the transactional charges, as these read and write operation charges are higher."
- "The downloading of high volume data and scalability processes face performance issues related to high data volumes."
- "Sometimes, I have issues with the Microsoft portal, which interrupts the service."
