# Storage Settings

The Providers setting can be managed under the *Settings > Library Settings > Storage* menu*.*

By using the Cloudimage Asset Library, you'll be leveraging the Scaleflex' built-in S3-based storage for high performance and scalability.

If you wish to only use Cloudimage for on-the-fly visual transformation and optimized delivery, you can integrate external storage providers like AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage (GCP), and Azure Blob Storage.&#x20;
