Video cloud storage is a subset of the larger file cloud storage ecosystem. While it's entirely possible to choose a file cloud storage option to store videos -- after all, videos are files -- the expectations placed on video technology in this day in age can make generic file cloud storage fall flat when it comes to archiving videos.
Are you looking for a cloud storage that allows videos to be easily embedded on a web page ? Are you looking for ample bandwidth quotas to easily share videos on social media ? Do you want to keep HD (High Definition) and standard versions of the same video on your cloud storage ? No matter your requirements, we've got you covered with an extensive analysis of the leading video cloud storage providers.
