Comment on Backblaze Pricing and Product Updates

Comments

Actually this price increase puts Backblaze B2 behind DigitalOcean's Cold storage which is $0.007/GiB, which equals to $6.5192/TB.

Of course there are other considerations too (e.g. min size is 128KiB and 30-day minimum storage duration), but in some use cases DO Cold storage is now cheaper.

designed to store and scale to tens of petabytes of infrequently accessed data...
During each billing cycle the Spaces Cold Storage service will have a 99.5% Uptime (as defined below) per month.

It's not really the same product.
