I'd be interested to see comparisons with the "S3-alike" services like Wasabi [1] and BackBlaze's B2 [2]. Their selling point is that they're a lot cheaper, so performance comparisons would be interesting.

- jamessb 6y agoI don't think it's a good idea to serve a static website out of a Wasabi bucket - they might suspend your account if it receives any significant traffic. Their pricing model is to be cheap by not apply egress bandwidth charges, on the understanding that this will be low compared to the storage used. The pricing FAQ says "If your monthly downloads (egress) are greater than your active storage volume, then your storage use case is not a good fit for Wasabi’s free egress policy", and "If your storage use case exceeds the guidelines of our free egress policy on a regular basis, we reserve the right to limit or suspend your service" [1].
