Enterprise allocations are tailored for businesses and applications that require high performance, scalability, and customization in terms of availability and data control.
This feature utilizes enterprise blobbers and supports S3 setup workflows, enabling unlimited file storage with a fast query rate of less than 100 milliseconds for billions of files.
Unlimited Files and File Size: Enterprise allocations support an unlimited number of files and file sizes, making them ideal for large datasets or applications with extensive storage needs.
High Performance: Optimized for fast data access, with sub-100 millisecond performance.
Permissioned Blobbers: Requires the use of permissioned blobbers, which are vetted storage providers within the Züs network, ensuring higher reliability and meeting stringent compliance requirements.
Data Control and Availability: Enterprise users can easily add or replace blobbers, manage data shards, and configure redundancy to guarantee nearly 100% uptime.
Security and Compliance: Enterprise allocations can be made immutable, ensuring that stored data cannot be altered and that they are backed by robust split-key and data fragmentation technology for enhanced security.
500 Million File Performance: Specifically optimized to deliver consistent, high-speed performance when managing up to 500 million files, ensuring seamless operation for enterprise-scale applications.
40TB Large File Upload: Supports individual file uploads of up to 40TB, making it suitable for industries managing large-scale media, datasets, or backups.
Ideal for: Organizations that need a high degree of control over their data, require maximum performance and availability, and are storing mission-critical or sensitive information.
