Using COMS, take advantage of more cost-effective storage solutions for your new or existing business applications with an authorization and authentication method that suits your application’s business requirements. COMS is a secure REST API that lets you connect your application to any S3 bucket. In S3, you can store and share files, images and documents with co-workers, partners or the public.
No need to have a new project or team build and maintain similar functionality or incur high storage cost. We provide Docker Images for hosting your own Common Object Management service to assist with your document management needs or you can use the hosted service. To determine which service is best for you, review our hosting considerations.
Use COMS to:
Save costs on storage and time and cost on development. Completely reusable and supported API that is easy to onboard to and easy to use while avoiding duplicate development effort.
Documents can be shared with other applications or people minimizing duplication and multiple copies.
Files are stored in a secure, organized and cost appropriate location for their type of usage and are accessible quickly for search, sharing, retrieval and archiving including metadata information. Align COMS with your chosen method of authentication and authorization.
