Neither tier provides fast access to files. If you are storing data with very little intent to ever retrieve it, AWS's Glacier and Glacier Deep Archive tiers of storage are actually cheaper than Backblaze B2. You want a much simpler pricing structure to work with.You want cheap storage pricing but need fast and frequent access to your files.You are looking to store a backup of your data on another provider, or have to store data over long periods of time for archival and compliance purposes.🤔 Strongly consider Backblaze B2 over S3 if You need some of the more management-oriented native features on Amazon S3, like the ability to tag resources.

AWS's Glacier and Glacier Deep Archive tiers of storage are actually cheaper than Backblaze B2, although neither tier provides fast access to files.There is a lot of intra-regional data traffic between storage buckets and other cloud services on the same provider.You are doing a lot of data analytics off your stored data (e.g., S3 to Snowflake).🤔 Strongly consider Amazon S3 over Backblaze B2 if You require HIPAA-compliant storage (although Backblaze is happy to enter into a Business Associate agreement with you).You need data cross-region replication factors greater than 3 (Backblaze has a limited number of regions).If you are planning to use many AWS services, the same rule applies. Your object storage is already deeply embedded with the rest of the AWS services, like Amazon Athena or AWS Lambda.What is happening if we make the Snapshot on B2 Cloud Storage after download it manually to the computer and upload everything to DO Spaces? After this process we modify the Bunn圜DN pull zone origin url to DO Spaces + change app.yml file and rebuild.Who Should You Choose, and Why? ✋ Only choose Amazon S3 if After this process we can upload everything to DO Spaces. The console code rake uploads:migrate_from_s3 is first download everything from s3 and we need to rebake posts which is also really slow process because of the images. B2 has Snapshot feature but that is soo slow. What is the best practice to do the migration? We have ~10gb uploads. If you got a different service working, please add it to this wiki. The baseline cost for storage is 0.005/GByte/Month (half of one penny). Service charges for B2 are variable based on the amount of data storage, bandwidth used, and transactions performed. I just went over some common Object Storage providers so I can attest if they work or not with Discourse. You can use it from any computer, on any operating system, for any cloud storage purpose.
