AWS wasn’t much better, so we looked at other object storage providers and narrowed our decision down to either Wasabi or Backblaze B2. We naturally wanted to use Microsoft’s Azure as we do with our cloud storage backup service, but doing so would have increased our costs tenfold. We had this dilemma ourselves when we moved our FileSync collaboration suite from our data centre to the cloud. If storage is your main business, and your data arrives into the service (ingress), then either service will be comparable on price. How does this affect bills in a production environment? The price of elegance is a little steeper: Basic online-only backup is 72 for one computer for one year, 136.78 for two years, and 194.37 for three.
If you have 10TB stored, you can download 10TB in one month for free, but not 11TB. Wasabi will allow you to transfer out for free all the data you are paying to store. Wasabi is very keen to say they don’t charge for egress, however, their charging policy is far from unlimited egress.
The differences are profound when large quantities of data need to be downloaded because these incur egress charges.īackblaze are up-front with their pricing, i.e. There is very little difference in cloud storage pricing between Wasabi and Backblaze B2 object storage.
