Backblaze focuses on hot object storage for top use cases, not pricey bells and whistles for outlier needs. We innovated on commodity hardware with intelligent software for high performance without high cost. Plus, Backblaze plans, buys, codes, and operates our Storage Cloud for cost efficiencies at exabyte scale.
