- duskwuff 5y agoIn short, they're a backup/archival service, not a general-purpose object store. Egress is free because you're expected to use it infrequently.
- celsoazevedo 5y agoYes. But I guess it can also be used like a general-purpose object store, we just have to pay them for the bandwidth used or have a CDN in front to cache stuff.
- duskwuff 5y agoNo, I really don't think it can. Literally nothing in the marketing copy describes this use case -- it's all about backup/archival use applications. And the bit in the TOS you quoted makes it clear that Wasabi isn't interested in high-bandwidth customers at any price point. Even with a good caching CDN, most public applications won't be able to hit the "egress < storage" target that Wasabi expects.
