As far as I know, R2 offers no storage tiers. Most of my s3 usage is archival and sits in glacier. From Cloudflare's pricing page, S3 is substantially cheaper for that type of workload.
- thrtythreeforty 3y agoI know people archive all kinds of data. I use Glacier as off-site backup for my measly 1TB of irreplaceable data. But I know many customers put petabytes in it. What could you have a petabyte of that you're pretty sure you'll never need again? What kind of datasets are you storing?
- Dylan16807 3y ago> pretty sure you'll never need again? It doesn't have to be nearly that stark. If we factor out egress, since it's the same for everything, the bulk retrieval cost for glacier deep archive is only $2.50/TB. That means that a full year of storage ($12) plus four retrievals ($10) is roughly the same price as a single month of normal S3 storage ($23).
- Hasz 3y agolong term work stuff. Things we would be contractually obligated to produce many years down the line. Plenty of other people storing images, video, etc. a PB is really not that much stuff when it's not just for personal consumption.
