Is OVHcloud's High Performance the best deal?

Object Storage · $0.02/mo

Competitively priced

OVHcloud's High Performance Object Storage is competitively priced at $0.02/mo with included traffic, matching or beating most alternatives on base storage cost. However, Azure Cool tier and Google Cloud Nearline both undercut at $0.01/mo, though they impose retrieval fees and early-deletion penalties that OVHcloud avoids for standard access patterns. The real decision hinges on your traffic volume and access frequency: if you rarely retrieve objects, Azure or Google Cloud may be cheaper; if you need predictable all-in pricing with included egress, OVHcloud remains solid.

Blob Storage Cool tier

$0.01/mosave 50%

Half the base storage cost of OVHcloud, with included retrieval in the first 30 days and no early-deletion penalty if you stay within the minimum.

Caveat: Retrieval and early-deletion fees apply after 30 days; outbound bandwidth above 100 GB/month is metered; 128 KiB minimum per object can inflate costs for many small files.

Cloud Storage Nearline storage

$0.01/mosave 50%

Matches Azure's base rate at $0.01/GB/month with 30-day minimum and $0.01/GB retrieval fee, offering similar economics for infrequently accessed data.

Caveat: Egress above 200 GiB/month to internet is billed per-GB; sustained-use discounts are separate and easy to miss; retrieval fees add up if access patterns are unpredictable.

Object Storage Infrequent Access

$0.0102/mosave 49%

Nearly identical to Azure and Google Cloud at $0.0102/GB/month storage plus $0.0102/GB retrieval, with a 99.95% SLA and no egress charges within Oracle's network.

Caveat: Retrieval fees and minimum retention period apply; SLA is slightly lower than Azure/Google at 99.95%; early-deletion penalties enforce the minimum retention window.

Object Storage Standard One Zone

$0.01/mosave 50%

Matches the $0.01/GB/month rate of Azure and Google Cloud with 75 GB free egress per month, making it attractive for low-traffic use cases.

Caveat: Single availability zone (Paris region) limits geographic redundancy; egress above 75 GB/month is EUR 0.01/GB; SLA ranges from 99.9% to 99.99% depending on tier.

Before you switch

OVHcloud's APAC outbound traffic loses free-egress status after mid-2026; verify your region and renewal date.
All cheaper alternatives ($0.01/mo) impose retrieval fees and minimum storage durations (30-90 days); calculate total cost if you access objects frequently.
Azure and Google Cloud meter egress above free tiers (100 GB and 200 GB respectively); OVHcloud includes all traffic, so compare your actual egress volume.
Scaleway's single-zone option lacks redundancy; consider their multi-zone tier if high availability is required.
OVHcloud's Infrequent Access and Cold Archive tiers have early-deletion penalties; stay on High Performance if you need flexibility.
