Block, object, and cloud file storage are three ways of storing data in the cloud so that users and applications can access it remotely over a network connection. What are the main differences and when should you use one over another? Object storage stores and manages all data in an unstructured format and in units called objects. Block storage takes any data, like a file or database entry, and divides it into blocks of equal sizes. Cloud file storage is another data storage method that provides servers and applications access to data through shared file systems.
