Our verdict on OVHcloud Object Storage
OVHcloud Object Storage is an S3-compatible service for storing and serving unstructured data through web and API access. It suits teams that need familiar S3 workflows alongside several storage classes, including standard, high-performance, infrequent-access, active archive, and cold archive options. Its ecosystem fit includes Terraform, Rclone, S3cmd, WinSCP, Veeam, HYCU, Cohesity NetBackup, and Nextcloud, making it practical for backup, archiving, application storage, and static website hosting.
Pricing is organized around storage class and deployment model. Multi-Zone Standard costs $0.0157096 per GiB per month and includes three-AZ deployment, free API requests, and free ingress and egress. Multi-Zone Infrequent Access costs $0.0103514, with a 30-day minimum storage duration and data retrieval fees. Multi-Zone Cold Archive costs $0.001971 and has a 180-day minimum duration. One-Zone High Performance costs $0.0202794, while One-Zone Standard costs $0.0081103; both include free API requests, with One-Zone Standard also including free ingress and egress. Active Archive and One-Zone Infrequent Access add archive-oriented policies and retrieval charges. There is no free plan.
The feature set goes beyond basic bucket storage. Versioning retains multiple object versions, lifecycle rules support expiration, cleanup, and tier transitions, and Object Lock provides retention periods and legal holds. Server-side encryption supports SSE-C and OVHcloud-managed keys, while asynchronous replication can operate within a region or across regions. Static hosting, bucket ACLs, and IAM-based access management broaden its application and governance options. Multipart upload supports individual objects up to 48 TiB. Choose OVHcloud for low-cost European S3 storage with detailed lifecycle and immutability controls; choose another service if free usage or simpler, fee-free archive retrieval is more important.
