Wasabi as New Iteration of Cloud Storage

Wasabi is the new name of BlueArchive.

We wrote about in May 2016.

The current web site address is bluearchive.com and we expect it will be change to wasabi very soon.

They play in the cloud storage market and it’s the natural extension of all work done with Storiant and other past entities.  This Wasabi company is not related with Wasabi Systems who developed iSCSI appliance.

Founded by serial entrepreneurs Jeff Flowers and David Friend (Carbonite, SageCloud, Storiant, BlueArchive), Wasabi’s goal is to shake the industry with a compelling cloud storage approach with new pricing, speed and reliability model. We’ll see how it will compete with some offering such Backblaze who announced recently a new pricing at $0.02GB/mo. and how the price is positioned with the trends indicated in the recent 451Research object storage study.
