dinCloud Offers AMZN S3 Cloud Storage Solution

dinCloud has now made it possible for its channel partners to sell common Amazon (AMZN) S3 software packages through its most recent cloud storage automation offering.

Dubbed dinStorage S3, the new dedicated cloud-based storage solution aims to tackle the inefficiencies of S3 by offering private connectivity via a dozen carriers and taking data transfer fees off the table.

Through the dinManage platform, customers can create and start using S3 accounts to manage their dedicated storage while using popular S3 clients.

dinStorage S3 enables the following capabilities:

“As widely adopted as S3 has become, it’s had a few drawbacks, including low performance over the Internet for large datasets, unencrypted disks, and heavy transfer fees for restores,” dinCloud CTO Mike Chase said in a prepared statement.

Attempting to iron out creases in Amazon’s offering, the cloud services provider (CSP) is giving end users unlimited storage capacity. It’s also only charging them on a per gigabyte, per month basis with no upload or download fees.

dinStorage S3 also provides channel partners with installation and configuration support. Other support includes managed services with S3 as the backend.
