Flat fee offerings will be an enabler, not the technological advancement.
- daviesliu 10y agoObjectiveFS does provide a flat fee ($15 per client), is that what you what? If the $ per byte of storage is relatively small comparing to the cost of S3, I actually like that model, pay as you go.
- Someone 10y agoThat flat fee sounded enticing, so I had to Google it. Flat fee? https://objectivefs.com/price?l=pricing https://objectivefs.com/price?l=pricing: "AWS S3 and Google GCS charges are not included." It only seems to be flat fee if you store your data on your own server and even then, I would quote 'flat fee', as your costs will go up when you add storage. You also take responsibility for backing up the data.
