Create Apps that Tap into Vast Amounts of Unstructured Data
Growing volumes of Unstructured data from social media, messaging apps and others platforms or sources are now at the heart numerous excitements and innovations, initiatives and R&D.
So that, IBM is deeply committed to help solve the challenge of how to
capture, store and gain intelligence from rapidly increasing amounts of
unstructured data.
With IBM
Object Storage, an IBM Cloud service, developers can interactively compose and connect
object storage into their apps.
Connectikpeople observes that
this service can provide app creators with a fully scalable, API-accessible
platform to store and retrieve unstructured data, as well as build apps around
this content.
Available in beta on Bluemix, through tapping the OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) API for API-based data
access and OpenStack Identity (Keystone) for authentication, IBM Object Storage
offers developers:
- The ability to compose and bind apps to object files – both inside and outside of Bluemix
- Identity management and authentication to help protect against unauthorized access to object-based data.
- A service dashboard user interface for simple management
- Object browser, drag-and-drop upload and download from the developer’s desktop
- Industry-adopted OpenStack Swift API and SDKs to access the object store
- Service keys to access and use Object Storage with external apps and services
- Security isolation for each object storage instance within Bluemix
