FAQ

Questions about the Cloud Object Storage Cost Calculator

How much does 1 TB cost in S3 Standard per month?

About $23.55 a month at the indicative July 2026 rate of $0.023 per GB-month in a US region, before requests and data transfer.

Is cold or archive storage always cheaper?

Storage is cheaper per GB, but cold tiers add retrieval fees, request charges and minimum storage durations. They suit data you rarely read.

Which object storage tier should I use for backups?

Infrequent-access or cool tiers suit backups you restore occasionally, while archive tiers suit long-term retention. Compare tiers here and check the minimum duration in the tier note.

Is the Cloud Object Storage Cost Calculator free and private?

Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up and runs entirely in your browser, so what you type is not uploaded. You only sign in if you want to email a result to yourself or save it to your CareerByteCode profile.
