Spec score 7.5 #16 of 26 in Cloud Storage Gateway Software

What it is

Wasabi Cloud NAS is cloud gateway software that extends on-premises NAS, SAN, or DAS capacity with Wasabi object storage. A configuration wizard connects existing storage and starts offloading data, while files remain visible as though they were on local servers. Wasabi says files are retrievable within milliseconds, and that backup images can be reduced and repopulated from the cloud within minutes after a failure. The software installs on a Microsoft Windows server; team devices need no client software. It uses a hybrid deployment model, supports SMB and NFS, and provides edge synchronization with S3-compatible storage. Object features include versioning, lifecycle rules, immutability, cross-region replication, and a maximum object size of 5120 GB. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with HTTPS, customer-provided SSE-C keys, MFA, IAM policies, Multi-User Authorization, and enterprise SSO options. Pay-as-you-go pricing is $9.99 a month per TB, with a 10 TB active-storage minimum.
