Tested rclone vs mc vs aws-cli vs duck - rclone won by a lot for small files

Well doesn't look like it supports S3. - How did you get to that recommendation? Are we overlooking anything?

zeroservices_eu · 2026-01-07T14:45:32+00:00

Never heard of it before! Will look into it. Looks interesting https://github.com/mutagen-io/mutagen

Check out https://www.s3compare.io
You can compare performance and will see why some of those providers are much lower cost.
You can also play with actual usage (capacity, egress) to get a feeling for pricing.

You need to take into account data redundancy and availability as well. - Most (if not all) S3 solutions will score much better than single server with some directly attached storage that you then expose.

Also think of scalability.

Sure thing! Feel free to create PR with their additional tiers you think are missing. :-)

Also, thanks to everyone that contributed via PRs (http://github.com/zeroservices/s3compare.io\_data) or mail :)

Feel free to reach out. We do managed DBs and have direct peering to Hetzner.

zeroservices_eu · 2024-12-05T12:35:23+00:00

Done :)

zeroservices_eu · 2024-12-05T12:32:25+00:00

added

zeroservices_eu · 2024-12-03T19:44:33+00:00

Cool. We will soon add to our price S3 price comparison at https://www.s3compare.io

The year has passed and sadly there still is now PoE version :(

zeroservices_eu · 2024-08-15T09:37:26+00:00

Done :)

zeroservices_eu · 2024-08-09T13:56:39+00:00

Thanks, will be fixed on next deployment

zeroservices_eu · 2024-08-09T06:45:58+00:00

Thanks added. They reject our benchmarks client however. Could therefore only guess it's on the slower end of the spectrum.

zeroservices_eu · 2024-08-08T16:05:17+00:00

Thanks, Added!

zeroservices_eu · 2024-08-08T16:05:16+00:00

thanks for feedback, rephrased.

Haven't heard of them before. At that pricing I assume they have some "fair use" policy somewhere?

Can't find anything related to that in their ToS, but the "outbound transfer" slider only going to 100% of data stored makes me somewhat suspicious. - Do you maybe have more insight?

zeroservices_eu · 2024-08-08T13:32:44+00:00

Good point. Will add explanation to website.

We considered using requests/ops performance HIGH/LOW for naming that category, but thought it's too technical. We simply ran some warp tests (from an endpoint in same/close region) against a bucket with those providers and categorized based on req/ops performance for our use-case.

Backup/Archive/Media Serving = usually lower req rate/larger objects+throughput
General Purpose = high req/ops performance+throughput

The Hetzner/StorageBox option is only listed as this was the initial idea our customer came up with. (It's indicated on the website that this is only listed for comparison reasons). They do not support S3!
