Overview

Lightbits Block Storage on AWS provides high-performance, cost-efficient persistent block storage for cloud-first and hybrid environments. It offers enterprise-grade data services, delivering up to 1M IOPS per volume, sub-millisecond latency, and up to 6X faster performance than native cloud storage at a lower cost. The platform supports VMware, Kubernetes, and OpenStack environments, enabling simple management of cloud and on-premises storage with flexible snapshots, auto-scaling, and automated cluster rebalancing. Licenses are portable between private and public clouds.
