Object Storage
S3-compatible object storage for backups, media, archives — unlimited scale, pay per GB.
What is Object Storage?
Object Storage is S3-compatible cloud storage for unstructured data — backups, media files, archives, logs, ML datasets, and application assets. Unlike block storage (VPS disks), object storage scales to petabytes with no capacity planning, and you pay only for what you use.
Our object storage is fully S3-compatible: use any S3 client (aws-cli, rclone, s3cmd, boto3) or SDK. Store unlimited objects up to 5 TB each, with automatic redundancy across multiple availability zones and 99.999999999% (11 nines) data durability.
Every object storage bucket includes lifecycle policies (auto-tiering to cheaper storage after N days), versioning (keep all versions of an object), server-side encryption (AES-256), public bucket hosting (for static websites), and pre-signed URLs for time-limited access.
Key Features
Everything included with Object Storage, ready to use from day one.
S3-Compatible API
Full S3 API compatibility. Use aws-cli, rclone, s3cmd, boto3, or any S3 SDK. No vendor lock-in.
Unlimited Scale
Store terabytes to petabytes with no capacity planning. Auto-scales seamlessly — no provisioning, no limits.
11 Nines Durability
99.999999999% data durability via multi-AZ redundancy. Your data is replicated across multiple availability zones.
Pay Per GB
Pay only for storage used — $0.02/GB/month. No minimums, no commitments, no tier limits.
Lifecycle Policies
Auto-tier objects to cheaper storage after N days. Auto-delete old backups. Reduce costs automatically.
Versioning
Keep all versions of every object. Roll back to any previous version. Protect against accidental deletion.
Server-Side Encryption
AES-256 encryption at rest. SSE-S3 (managed keys) or SSE-KMS (customer-managed keys) supported.
Pre-Signed URLs
Generate time-limited download URLs for private objects. Share files securely without making them public.

Use Cases & Examples
Real-world scenarios where Object Storage delivers value.
Backup Storage
Store server backups, database dumps, and file archives in object storage. Cheaper than block storage, with 11 nines durability.
Example: A company stores 5 TB of daily backups in object storage at $100/month. Lifecycle policies auto-delete backups older than 90 days, keeping costs predictable.
Media Library
Store user-uploaded images, videos, and documents. Serve them via pre-signed URLs or public bucket hosting.
Example: A photo sharing app stores 20 TB of user photos in object storage. Photos are served via pre-signed URLs — secure, time-limited, and cost-effective at $400/month.
ML Dataset Storage
Store large ML datasets (images, text, audio) for training. S3-compatible API integrates with PyTorch DataLoader and TensorFlow.
Example: An AI team stores a 10 TB image dataset in object storage. PyTorch DataLoader streams batches directly from the S3-compatible API during training — no local storage needed.

Auto-Provision Hosting Account
Object storage is provisioned as a service through the fulfillService function. The system creates an S3-compatible bucket, generates API credentials (access key + secret key), configures lifecycle policies, and enables encryption — all within seconds of purchase.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is object storage compatible with AWS S3?
Yes. Our object storage implements the full S3 API. Any S3-compatible tool (aws-cli, rclone, boto3) works without modification — just change the endpoint URL.
How is object storage different from VPS storage?
VPS storage is block storage (a disk attached to a server). Object storage is cloud-native, S3-compatible, scales to petabytes, and costs $0.02/GB — much cheaper for large datasets.
Can I host a static website on object storage?
Yes. Enable public bucket hosting and serve static files (HTML, CSS, JS, images) directly from the bucket — no server needed.
Is there a fee for data transfer?
Egress (data leaving the storage) is free within the same region. Cross-region egress is $0.01/GB. Ingress (data entering) is always free.
