Backblaze report shows cloud storage performance varies by region, no provider leads globally
  • Backblaze published Q1 2026 cloud storage performance stats, flagging wide regional dispersion that undermines single-vendor cloud storage strategies.
  • Testing across US-East, EU-Central showed no provider led consistently across geographies or workloads, challenging default reliance on AWS.
  • US-East results improved quarter over quarter on average upload and download times across most providers.
  • EU-Central rankings diverged from US-East, with Cloudflare R2 strong on average upload and download times.
  • Sustained throughput results differed from averages, with multi-threaded tests showing the widest gaps between top and bottom performers.
