Events are not relational and find many applications that are similar to the use cases of NoSql storage. Specifically, events conform to append only stream storage due to the sequential nature of the events. Events are also processed in windows making a stream processor such as Flink extremely suitable for events. Stream processors benefit from stream storage and such a storage can be overlaid on any Tier-2 storage.

Event storage gained popularity because a lot of IoT devices started producing them. Read and writes were very different from conventional data because they were time-based sequential and progressive. Although stream storage is best for events, any time-series database could also work. However, they are not web-accessible unless they are in an object store. Their need for storage is not very different from applications requiring object storage that facilitate store and access. However as object storage makes inwards into vectorized execution, the data transfers become increasingly fragmented and continuous. At this junction it is important to facilitate data transfer between objects and Event and it is in this space that Events and object store find suitability. Search, browse and query operations are facilitated in a web service using a web-accessible store. 

File-systems have long been the destination to store artifacts on disk and while file-system has evolved to stretch over clusters and not just remote servers, it remains inadequate as a blob storage. Data writers have to self-organize and interpret their files while frequently relying on the metadata stored separate from the files.  Files also tend to become binaries with proprietary interpretations. Files can only be bundled in an archive and there is no object-oriented design over data. If the storage were to support organizational units in terms of objects without requiring hierarchical declarations and supporting is-a or has-a relationships, it tends to become more usable than files.  

Since Event storage overlays on Tier 2 storage on top of blocks, files, streams and blobs, it is already transferring data to object storage. However, the reverse is not that frequent although objects in a storage class can continue to be serialized to Event in a continuous manner. It is also symbiotic to audience on both storage.
