Blackblaze reliability and performance are below aws, same for bunny cdn. Although I understand it can be interesting for some use cases where perf/reliability is not critical.

- coder543 4y agoCan you cite your sources? AWS "reliability" has been the direct cause of a number of sleepless nights for me over the years. Comparing to a few years ago when I worked on a large-scale product hosted on bare metal servers that worked beautifully, I don't think AWS is all it is hyped up to be. Anecdotal, I know, but even with no experience using Backblaze or Bunny, the bar they would have to meet is a lot lower than you're implying.
- js4ever 4y agoI'm talking about my personal experience, on blackblaze the number of 500 errors was simply not acceptable for my use case, likewise for performance and latency. I was a bit disappointed by bunny cdn rps/latency. But indeed price is not at all comparable. Also I'm not talking about any aws service but more specifically about S3 a d CloudFront. Finally, as I said above those blackblaze and bunny are amazing if you try to optimize the cost as your main goal.
