Object Storage Hybrid Infrastructure

IONOS Object Storage features

Secure data centers

IONOS Cloud offers maximum security thanks to encrypted, redundant data storage. IONOS Object Storage is available in our highly secure data centers in Europe.

High reliability

For maximum reliability, IONOS Cloud runs your IONOS Object Storage in a highly available setup and backs up your data with local replication. You also have the option to choose georedundant data storage. There’s a charge for primary and georedundant storage usage.

Object Lock for long-term storage

Once an object has been stored, Object Lock protects it from being deleted, modified or overwritten — for years if required. You configure the retention periods according to your needs. If a new version of the same file is uploaded, the system automatically creates an additional version of the document. In this way, Object Lock makes your data auditable and meets the legal WORM ("Write Once Read Many") requirements for long-term data storage.

Individual access protection

You control who accesses your IONOS Object Storage. You can define access rights individually using access control lists, ensuring that your data security is maintained at all times.

Fast setup

Quickly and easily integrate IONOS Object Storage into your IT infrastructure by using our IONOS Object Storage API, Compute Engine's Data Center Designer, third-party SDKs, or an S3-compatible client to configure your buckets or transfer your storage objects to the cloud.
