Avoid Lock-In
While it might be the first choice to use Azure Blob Storage API when designing an Azure application, such a decision results in lock in to Azure Blob Storage. With Flexify.IO, you do not need to depend on the proprietary Azure API.
S3-Azure gateway
Run your S3-compatible applications in Azure while we convert Amazon S3 API to Azure Blob Storage API on-the-fly.
Flexify® IO transparently translates from S3 API to Azure Blob Storage API, acting as a gateway between your S3 application and Azure Blob Storage.
Benefits
Simplify Migration to Azure
Migrate S3-compatible applications to Azure more easily and faster by eliminating the need to rewrite them to support Azure Blob Storage API. Flexify.IO transparently convert APIs on-the-fly, allowing your existing applications to work with data in Azure with no code changes.
Ensure Portability
The ability to freely move your applications and data between cloud providers is essential in today’s multi-cloud world. Flexify.IO allows you to code an application once using the industry-standard S3-compatible API and run it across clouds.
Use Standard S3 API
Code your applications for the industry-standard Amazons S3-compatible API, ensuring better compatibility with other clouds, as well as a wider selection of tools and SDKs, and Flexify will convert storage calls to Azure Blob Storage API format on-the-fly.
Reduce Engineering Cost
The need to port an application to a different API or support multiple APIs puts an extra burden on the engineering team. Allow them to spend their pressure time on revenue-generating activities by letting Flexify.IO handle the differences in storage APIs.

S3-Compatible Storage API
Applications access data via Flexify.IO using standard S3-compatible API while Flexify.IO translates S3 requests to Azure Blob Storage API and responses back to S3 API that your application understands.

Azure Resource Manager (ARM) Templates
Flexify.IO can be deployed to your Azure account via ARM templates. This simplified and helped to automate provisioning and deprovisioning, especially in larger configuration when integration is required.
Cloud-Native Stateless Architecture
Flexify.IO is designed as a cloud-native solution from the ground-up with scalable stateless architecture, ensuring that Flexify.IO stays on part with the underlying cloud-native storage.
Unlimited Scalability
Scale from just a couple to hundreds of engines with a touch of a slider, allowing processing millions of requests and terabits per second, in a geographically distributed environment.
Performance Optimizations
Flexify.IO is designed with top performance in mind: we go far lengths to ensure minimum added latency and highest throughput for each engine, scaled horizontally as you add more engines.
Management Web UI
Flexify.IO comes with intuitive Web UI for configuration, management, and monitoring, allowing you to start storing data in Azure Blob Storage using S3-compatible API in minutes.
Management REST API
For integration and automation, Flexify.IO also provides REST API that allows adding new Azure Blob Storage Accounts, configuring S3 endpoints, monitor status, and do everything that is possible via the Web UI (and a little more).
Multi-Tenant User Management
Flexify.IO is a multi-tenant system, allowing multiple users to share a single installation, based on their roles, permissions, and assignments, all controlled from the Web UI or via the REST API.
Pricing
Simply create a Flexify.IO account, attach Azure Blob Storage, and configure your S3 application to use on of Flexify-hosted S3-compatible Virtual Endpoints such as s3.flexify.io.
We will charge for traffic sent via our Virtual Endpoint to Azure Storage and from Azure Storage back to your S3 application.
| Endpoint | < 100 TB / month | > 100 TB / month |
|---|---|---|
| s3.flexify.io | $0.03 / GiB | contact us |
| s3.eu.flexify.io | $0.03 / GiB | contact us |
| s3.us-east-1.aws.flexify.io | $0.09 / GiB | contact us |
| s3.us-west-1.aws.flexify.io | $0.09 / GiB | contact us |
| s3.eastus2.azure.flexify.io | $0.09 / GiB | contact us |
| s3.germanywestcentral.azure.flexify.io | $0.09 / GiB | contact us |
Calculation Example
Your S3-compatible application writes 1,000 GiB and reads 2,000 GiB to/from Azure Storage Account via s3.flexify.io endpoint. Flexify will charge:
Traffic from your application to Flexify.IO: $0.00 (free)
Traffic from Flexify.IO to Azure Storage Account: 1,000 GiB * $0.03 = $30
Traffic from Azure Storage Account to Flexify.IO: $0.00 (free)
Traffic from Flexify.IO to your application: 2,000 GiB * $0.03 = $60
Total: $90
