Storj Sets New Standard for Media Storage and Compute at IBC 2025
Storj’s presence at IBC 2025 saw three major announcements, setting the company firmly on course to become one of the most disruptive forces in the media market.
Storj’s distributed storage platform is already reshaping cloud economics with its dramatically lower costs, greener credentials, and transparent pricing compared to traditional public cloud providers. At this year’s IBC, Storj (pronounced Store-J) introduced four new storage tiers, each designed to meet specific workflow requirements with no hidden API or file costs and generous included egress:
Global Collaboration
For teams needing high-speed performance, built-in resilience, and low-latency access anywhere in the world.
Price: $15, €14, £12 per TB, per month (PAYG model)
Egress: Includes 1x your storage commit (e.g. 1TB stored = 1TB egress/month FoC)
Hidden Costs: None — no API or file access fees
Equivalent To: AWS S3 Standard with two regions of replication
Regional Workflows – Tyrell Exclusive
For users requiring data residency and compliance, with SOC2 Type 2 certification.
Price: $10, €9, £8 per TB, per month (annual commit model)
Egress: Includes 1x your storage commit per month
Hidden Costs: None — no API or file access fees
Equivalent To: AWS S3 Standard with one region
Active Archive
For near-term retention that keeps archive data readily accessible for ongoing productions without paying for peak performance.
Price: $6, €6, £5 per TB, per month (PAYG model)
Egress: Charged at $0.02, €0.01, £0.01 per GB per month
Hidden Costs: None — no API or file access fees
Equivalent To: AWS S3 Infrequent Access, or Wasabi Hot Tier (90-day min retention), with two regions of replication
RCS Backup – Tyrell Exclusive
For long-term archive, discounted through pre-purchased storage for secondary or long-term requirements.
Price:$5, €5, £4 per TB, per year (annual commit model)
Egress: Includes 1x your storage commit per month
Hidden Costs: None — no API or file access fees
Equivalent To: AWS S3 Glacier Instant Access, or Wasabi Hot Tier (90-day min retention)
Object Mount
Storj announced the acquisition of Object Mount at IBC 2024, and this year it returned to IBC 2025 with two vital new features for production workflows. But first — what is Object Mount?
Edit, Conform, Master…
Object storage, whether cloud or on-prem, was not originally designed for editing. Over the past few IBCs, several solutions have emerged to make object storage suitable for production workflows. Object Mount stands out by enabling real-time editing across all object storage types — whether on-premise Object Matrix or cloud platforms like AWS S3, Microsoft Azure, and Storj’s distributed network. Collaborators can share credentials, allowing direct editing no matter where the files reside.
Unlike other solutions, Object Mount does not wrap, shard, or alter files. It presents the storage as a standard file system to your workstation, allowing your favorite NLE to work directly with the file while keeping it accessible to other workflows.
What’s new for IBC 2025?
Network-Based Cache – You can now designate a network volume to store streamed cache. Any file cached for instant access becomes available to all users on the network.
File Pinning – You can identify which files to pin to a local or network cache volume. Normally, Object Mount’s cache operates on a first-in, first-out basis, but pinned files remain persistent and are not cleared when newer files arrive.
These updates make Object Mount an even more powerful and flexible tool for collaborative, production-ready workflows.
Virtual Compute
Finally, Storj announced plans for virtual CPU and GPU compute on its distributed network. For Tyrell, this is particularly exciting: it will enable cheaper compute than AWS, with zero egress fees and ultra-low latency access to Storj storage. This development extends Storj’s vision beyond storage into high-performance compute, opening new possibilities for media workflows.
