If you're using the Enterprise Plan, you can opt to use any S3 compatible storage instead of the built-in cloud storage. For example, it includes the popular Digital Ocean Storage Spaces. Setting up Digital Ocean Storage Spaces is very similar to AWS S3, except that region will always get set to us-east-1. You can read more about storage in our documentation.

Can I disable storage?
You can disable storage. However, you will lose out on several account features and functionality. If you choose to disable storage, the response will include the asset, and it will be destroyed from our servers as soon as the response is closed. You pass in "storage":false" to the request object to disable storage. You can read more about storage in our documentation.
