Object storage and content delivery networks (CDNs) store files and serve them quickly worldwide. Object storage holds backups, media and downloads cheaply; a CDN caches your content on servers near your visitors so pages and files load faster.
Pricing usually combines storage per gigabyte, data transfer out and requests, so the cheapest option depends on how often your files are downloaded. S3-compatible APIs make it easier to switch providers later. Start by estimating how much data you store and how much is downloaded each month, then compare the total cost across a few providers.
How to choose
- Compare egress (download) fees, which often cost more than storage itself.
- Check S3 compatibility so your tools and backups work without changes.
- Look at the CDN's locations relative to your audience.
- Check request pricing and minimum storage durations.
- Look for built-in security: HTTPS, access keys, and DDoS and bot protection.
- Plan your exit. Make sure you can export files, databases and email, and that your domain can be transferred out without fees.
Frequently asked questions
What is object storage used for?
Backups, images, video, downloads and other files accessed over an API rather than a normal disk.
Do I need a CDN?
If your visitors are spread across regions or you serve large files, a CDN makes pages load noticeably faster.
What are egress fees?
Charges for data downloaded out of a provider's network. They vary widely between providers.
