Block vs Object Storage: When to Use Which
Block storage acts like a disk; object storage acts like an infinitely large key-value store. Here is how they differ in architecture, performance, pricing, and the right use case for each.
Understanding Cloud Egress Fees: What You Pay and Why
Ingress is free, egress is not - and the rate depends on where the bytes go. Here is how internet, inter-region, and same-region transfer are billed, and why hyperscalers charge.
Object Storage Pricing Guide: The Five Costs That Matter
Object storage looks cheap at $0.02/GB-month, but storage is only one of five costs. Here is how egress, requests, durability, tiers, and minimum durations shape the real bill.
How to Cut S3 Egress Costs: 9 Levers That Actually Work
Egress is often the surprise line item on an object-storage bill. Here are the practical levers - caching, free-egress providers, same-region traffic, and compression - that cut it.
