    Wow! I just posted about this the other day, thought it was basically abandoned or on ice forever. Though I see the page says "get early access" which is about where it was 3 years ago. Trying to add a bucket gets "oops, internal error". Heh.

    I do hope they support OpenStack swift as a compatible API. Or at least s3 compatible. That would save my costs on Azure object storage, and be closer by than the US.

    Maybe it will be something like €1 for every 50GB. On Scaleway site it's said that "Volumes are billed €1/month per additional 50 GB of SSD."

    That's for the storage on Scaleway servers.

    Mh, not a fan of those outgoing transfer prices... I wonder if transfer to a VM inside their network counts?

    Right now OVH would be cheaper, with 0.01€/GB transfer and storage. Though I haven't tested it and they don't have S3 compatability as far as I am aware.

    Edit: just saw that they mention

    Internal transfers are totally free.

    On their site. That wasn't mentioned in the blog post.

    Thanks for this, I'll have to check it. If it's true then the product is interesting. Otherwise the .02e/GB is lolworthy.

    Wait so.. you can get a 2€ Scaleway VPS and set Nextcloud external storage to use S3 (since this appears to be S3 compliant) and infinitely scale your storage for 10€/TB? :open_mouth:

    Sounds cool, but I'm not going to bother with online.net/scaleway anymore, at least for a while. Imagine uploading 100TB and then they raise prices by 75%. :open_mouth:

    Lol, good point. Scaleway was interesting for a while as a cheap source of hourly cpu, which suggested putting data on SIS for the Scaleway cpus to process in parallel. But Scaleway isn't that attractive any more, compared to alternatives.
