A company’s capital includes its data and information. A secure and reliable storage solution is thus all the more important. Installed on-premises, hardware can be damaged or even destroyed. In comparison, data stored in the cloud is more secure, as it can be kept redundantly. The storage space itself is fairly inexpensive, but your company should make sure that it only pays for the resources it actually uses. A wide range of cloud storage solutions are offered for various purposes. And let’s not forget that cloud storage enables optimized disaster recovery strategies and therefore helps to ensure compliance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Block storage is ideal for dynamic applications that require high performance, e.g. databases and frequently recurring, fast transactions. You can use block storage on HDD and SSD drives. Benefit from fast access times. The Compute Engine uses block storage.
Protecting company data from loss is extremely important. Thanks to the dual redundancy of its cloud storage solutions, IONOS Cloud can provide this protection: instead of storing your files in only one location, we also mirror the full backup in a second availability zone. This keeps your data safe, even if a data center is damaged by flooding, fire, or natural disasters. What’s more, the strict data protection laws in Germany naturally also apply to our German data centers — and therefore to your cloud storage as well.
