IBM Cloud Object Storage

Storj is an open-source and decentralized cloud storage platform. The storage infrastructure is builtup by a decentralized network of nodes to host user data. The data is stored and secured by individuals on the network that gain rewards in the form of storj coins to maintain the network. Storj is used by individuals and organizations across the globe for secure file storage, music and video streaming, software distribution, backups and hosting of cloud native applications.

The InterPlanetary File System or IPFS for short is a distributed hypermedia protocol designed to be the new permanent web. IPFS uses peer-to-peer to distribute the network across machines and the globe. IPFS combines decentralized technologies like Git, BitTorrent, Kademlia and SFS to build what they think could be the new internet, or a subsystem of it.

Azure Blob Storage is a storage solution provided by Microsoft Azure as a part of its cloud services. Azure Blob Storage share many similarities with Amazon S3's object storage while providing it's own proprietary protocol. With Azure Blob Storage you can create data lakes for your analytics needs, and provides storage to build powerful cloud-native and mobile apps. Optimize costs with tiered storage for your long-term data, and flexibly scale up for high-performance computing and machine learning workloads.

Linode Object Storage provides high availability S3-compatible object storage that allow you to store your data across a cluster of servers for high availability and durability. Linode Object Storage is most commonly used by developers to store images, videos and other assets for web applicaitons and software applicaitons.
