How much can you save money by switching from 'Amazon S3' to 'Cloudflare R2 Storage'?
On September 28, 2021,
Time to put on my Cloud Economics Pants and do a bit of math around @Cloudflare's R2 pricing model as described herein. Https://t.co/bCcf1mTIT7

Cloudflare complained on its official blog that 'Amazon is adjusting AWS pricing to lock users into its services,' and Matthew Prince told Twitter that 'AWS bandwidth pricing is we crazy. in addition, because the customer is not a discount when sending traffic to a network that is peering, only AWS also in the industry, 'said post and or, when used in combination with AWS and third-party services from previous He pointed out the high price.

Thanks to your complaint, Cloudflare's original object storage 'Cloudflare R2 Storage' announced on September 28, 2021 is free of charge when reading data. The cost of data storage is set at $ 0.015 per GB of data per month (about 1.67 yen), ' Price setting cheaper than competitors ' ' Full compatibility with Amazon S3 API, smooth migration ' ' The annual data durability is 99.999999999% . '
Quinn compares the costs of both Amazon S3 and Cloudflare R2 Storage, using 1GB of data as an example. First, Amazon S3 costs $ 0.023 per month to store 1GB of data, and it costs $ 0.09 to send 1GB of data to users. On the other hand, with R2 Storage, the data storage fee is $ 0.015 (about 1.67 yen) per GB per month, and the data transmission fee is free.
If 1GB of data is downloaded to 1 million people in a month, Amazon S3 will send 1 million data transmissions, for a total cost of $ 53,891.16. In contrast, Cloudflare R2 Storage does not change the cost no matter how many times it is downloaded.
One final point: Now let's remember that the internet is 1-to-many. If 1 million people download that 1GB this month, my cost with @cloudflare R2 this way rounds up to 13 ¢. With @awscloud S3 it's $ 59,247.52.

THAT is why people are losing their minds over this.
Slight correction: $ 53,891.16. Apologies, the @awscloud pricing calculator LOVES to slip 'developer support' onto the tab.

Quinn said that storing data in multiple object storages can reduce the risk of data loss, but if you only contract with Cloudflare R2 Storage, which has 'annual data durability of 99.999999999%', It states that it will greatly improve economic efficiency.
