A Honest Review About Alibaba OSS: Southeast Asia Usage
Rating: 9 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
Alibaba OSS is used to store uploaded files and static files for our platform usage. It's used for all platforms in our organization and it solves our problem of file storage availability. We used Backblaze too as a backup if something happens with Alibaba. We choose Alibaba because price-wise it's much cheaper than Amazon
Pros
- Cheap
- Many location options
- Well documented
Cons
- Reliability
- Technical support
- Availability
Likelihood to Recommend
It will be a very good decision to use Alibaba Object Storage Service if you need a good OSS at a cheap price. Alibaba is the answer to it, but you can't fully rely on it because sometimes on Southeast Asia server locations it will always have a high possibility of loss (can't be accessed, cant upload/download, etc.).
