| Fact | Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage | Quantum StorNext |
|---|---|---|
| Encryption | Stored data is encrypted by default, with customer-provided keys, Vault keys, and client-side encryption also supported. | StorNext documentation describes client-side AES256 encryption for Q-Cloud policies and server-side AES256 options for supported object storage. |
| Integrations | Oracle describes integrations with Autonomous AI Database, MySQL HeatWave, Data Flow, Events, Functions, and Oracle NoSQL Database Cloud. | Quantum customer material says Adobe, Apple, Autodesk, Avid, and Telestream applications worked in one StorNext shared environment. |
| Purpose | OCI Object Storage stores and retrieves unstructured data, including analytics data, images, and videos. | StorNext is a shared-storage file system for collaboration and streaming workflows, with a unified namespace across flash, disk, object, and tape. |
It suits teams storing unstructured data who need tiered storage, access controls, encryption, or object recovery options. Consider the Archive restoration delay and Infrequent Access retrieval charge when choosing a tier.
StorNext suits teams that need shared access to files across storage tiers for collaboration or streaming workflows. It may also fit organizations managing storage across supported client systems and cloud targets.
