What is Object Storage?
The Object Storage Service is for Ministry and Greater Public Sector clients to store data as objects using standard protocols including S3, NFS, and HTTPS. It provides a scalable, secure, fully managed object storage platform with high availability and enterprise features. Data put into Object Storage will be mirrored by the OCIO between Calgary and Kamloops, with a failover function in the event that one data center is unavailable. The replication of data is asynchronous and constant. There are no data backups within Object Storage as it is meant for archival data.
Requesting Object Storage
Object Storage requests are handled through the Information Management Branch (IMB) Service Desk, the iStore preparer for several business areas within CITZ.
