Object Storage · $0.02/mo
Scaleway's Standard Multi-AZ Object Storage at $0.02/GB/month is competitively priced but not the cheapest. Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle, and OVHcloud all offer $0.01/GB/month storage, cutting your base cost in half—however, all impose retrieval fees, early-deletion penalties, or minimum retention periods that Scaleway does not clearly enforce, making true total-cost comparison workload-dependent.
Half the storage cost per GB and includes 100 GB free egress per month, offsetting Scaleway's 75 GB free tier.
Caveat: Cool tier enforces 30-day minimum retention and charges retrieval fees plus early-deletion penalties if you delete before 30 days; minimum 128 KiB per object also applies.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Microsoft Azure | Blob Storage · Cool tier | $0.01/mo | Per GB/month, LRS. Lower storage cost, retrieval and early-deletion fees apply for objects deleted before 30 days. | Visit |
| Google Cloud | Cloud Storage · Nearline storage | $0.01/mo | $0.010/GB/month, 30-day minimum storage duration, $0.01/GB retrieval fee | Visit |
| Oracle Cloud Infrastructure | Object Storage · Infrequent Access | $0.01/mo |
Matches Azure's $0.01/GB storage rate and includes 200 GiB free egress (higher than Scaleway's 75 GB), with straightforward per-GB retrieval fees.
Caveat: 30-day minimum storage duration and $0.01/GB retrieval fee apply; sustained-use discounts are easy to miss and require separate enrollment.
Matches $0.01/GB pricing, includes all incoming and outgoing traffic (no egress fees until 2026), and is S3-compatible for easy migration.
Caveat: APAC region free-egress status expires 2026-06-01/12-31; billed per GiB-hour rather than per-month, which can be less predictable; SLA is region-dependent.
Nearly matches the $0.01/GB tier pricing with minimal difference and includes a 99.95% SLA.
Caveat: Charges an additional $0.0102/GB retrieval fee and enforces a minimum retention period with early-deletion penalties; total cost rises significantly if you access data frequently.
