Yev from Backblaze here -> thanks! We're pretty excited about this, there's never really a better time for AWS users to diversify their cloud storage vendors and keep a working copy somewhere else. :D

Yev from Backblaze here -> please do not do this, we really like him.

Yev here -> the reason we have S3 pricing on our pricing page and not Deep Glacier is because our performance is closer-tied to the S3 service, meaning both Backblaze B2 and S3 are hot storage. Deep Glacier is...well..cool or cold storag

Hey! Best thing to do would be to write to that email address and ask for an update when there is one! We're trying to get to everyone there! :)

Edit -> My grammar was terrible in the above sentence. Yikes.

by atYevP 6y ago
Yev here -> we're working on it! We've heard a lot from folks using s3cmd and I believe we have some changes coming shortly. If you want to chat with the PM team directly, we're grabbing feedback at: b2feedback@backblaze.c

Interesting question! I don't know but I'll ask the dev team. *Edit -> asked around here's whats up -> we do currently stream some logs/data off the device but we also like it to be written to disk - there's s

Yev from Backblaze here -> Nice! Welcome aboard :) Edit -> what are the feature's your missing most? We're collecting feedback at: b2feedback@backblaze.com if you want to send some notes over!

Not sure on that one actually. I think one of the main things for us was the rewrite performance, since we're constantly moving/copying/deleting/changing data we need that to be fairly performant - but not sure about the

Yev here -> The boot drives are helpful for log storage/collection so the extra capacity is nice - plus they're not "large" drives so the costs associated are pretty minimal!
132.
by atYevP 6y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> Yea, we've tested them but found they didn't play nice so we aren't deploying them in droves. If you find a good place for data on SMRs send it our way, would be fun to read up on it!

by atYevP 6y ago
Yev here -> No there's no minimum charges for downloads, it's just $0.01/GB down and $0.005/GB/Mo for storage, but everything is calculated on a byte hour level :)

Yev here -> make sure you ping our b2feedback@backblaze.com address and let us know about that experience, we're writing it all down and keeping tabs on what's not working as intended.

Hey good question, it's essentially a peered connection so you're not paying for the transfer between providers, you can learn more here -> https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-and-cloudflare-part...

by atYevP 6y ago
Yev here -> That's awesome to hear! Ease of use is one of the things that we strive for at Backblaze and I'm glad that the S3 Compatible APIs are going to unlock some use-cases and make things easier for people that don't

As far as our service is concerned everyone pays the same price for B2 Cloud Storage, $0.005/GB. We're not a network provider and in this case neither is Cloudflare. We are both service providers. The partnership between us simply
139.
by atYevP 6y ago
I believe in this case Cloudflare and Backblaze would be considered service providers, not network providers (like Comcast or AT&T, etc...). And you'd still need to pay each service individually for the service they're providi

by atYevP 6y ago
Yev here -> unsure how those are related, but you certainly don't NEED to use Cloudflare if you're using B2 Cloud Storage as the data origination point, it's just an option that was brought up in the thread!

by atYevP 6y ago
All of our pricing is available on the site (no need to call anyone) - B2 Cloud Storage is listed here -> https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-storage-pricing.html . Just scroll down for the transactions!

When you say regular, I think you mean awesome Storage Pods that were lovingly purpose-built for affordable and efficient data storage ( https://www.backblaze.com/b2/storage-pod.html ). *Edit -> Well, those plus the l

Yev here -> That's awesome to hear! Glad we can make things more affordable for you and that it's working great!

by atYevP 6y ago
Ah that's awesome! I'd love to more know! How are you using B2 in general, and does this make it easier for you? If you want to leave a note here, or you can send it to: b2feedback@backblaze.com!

For that integration it's just the download fees. The transactions do still get billed, but many people can stay within the free daily allotment.

Yev here -> Glad you're excited and that this will make things a bit easier for you!

Yev from Backblaze here -> Glad that you took a look at us in the past, excited that this announcement will warrant another look! :)

Yev from Backblaze here -> That's correct. We're a founding member of the Bandwidth Alliance and you can find more info about that on our Blog ( https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-and-cloudflare-part..

Yev here -> It's not so much a standard, though S3 is generally the most often used suite of APIs. 100s of integrations exist with our B2 Native APIs ( https://www.backblaze.com/b2/integrations.html ), but a lot

Yev here -> thanks! We're constantly working on making the platform better, and copy-file was definitely a widely requested feature! That plus S3 Compatibility, for folks who wanted to integrated with B2 Cloud Storage but didn'
