Backblaze Analysis Highlights Storage Gaps Among Neocloud Providers
  • Storage weaknesses threaten GPU cloud providers' competitive standing, Backblaze's analysis of SemiAnalysis's ClusterMAX 3.0 report found.
  • Only 19 of 77 providers tested in depth earned a Medallion rating; several previously rated Silver or Gold lost that status.
  • Some providers lost nearly 40% of bandwidth during 15 minutes of sustained mixed traffic.
  • Recurring security failures included inadequate volume access controls, exposed backend networks and default settings that undermined tenant isolation.
  • Providers face strategic trade-offs between dedicated storage staffing, capital-intensive infrastructure and partnerships that reduce operational responsibility but limit control.
