About IDrive e2
IDrive e2 is an S3 compatible object storage service for developers and businesses. It is used for backups, media files, application data and AI datasets.
What it does
You create buckets and store objects using standard S3 tools and SDKs. The service includes object lock for immutable storage, versioning, and replication across regions. It also offers an option to back up other S3-compatible storage and works with several backup products.
Key features
- S3 compatible storage with no egress fees
- Object lock and versioning for protection
- Replication across regions
- Event notifications for bucket changes
- Storage locations in the US, Canada, Europe and Asia
Who it's for
Developers, managed service providers and backup teams that need low-cost storage with S3 compatibility. It is a good option for teams that use backup software such as Veeam.
Pricing and good to know
The service is paid, and plans are priced per terabyte. Discounted first-year prices are shown for some plans, so check the renewal price before you commit. Object lock and retention settings protect data but also limit deletion, so set them carefully and test your restore process.
