## Choosing an Object Storage provider
You can create [Amazon S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/) or another S3-compatible object store like [Backblaze B2](https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-storage.html), [Wasabi](https://wasabi.com), [Digital Ocean Spaces](https://www.digitalocean.com/products/spaces), etc.

All these providers have different prices, with Storj appearing to be the cheapest (as of 2024-10, storage fee is $0.004 per GB/month, and egress fee is $0.007 per GB). Backblaze egress is free, but for only certain users for up to 3x the amount of data stored. Beyond that you will pay $0.01/GB of egress.
Wasabi has a minimum charge of 1TB if you're storing less than 1TB, which becomes expensive if you need to store less data than that.
Wasabi has a minimum charge of 1TB if you're storing less than 1TB, which becomes expensive if you need to store less data than that. Likewise, Digital Ocean Spaces has also a minimum charge of 250GB ($5/month as of 2022-10).

Here are some of the important aspects of choosing the right provider:
Important aspects of choosing the right provider are:
- a provider by a company you like and trust (or dislike less than the others)
- a provider which has a data region close to your Matrix server (if it's farther away, high latency may cause slowdowns)
- a provider which is OK pricewise
- a provider with free or cheap egress (if you need to get the data out often, for some reason) - likely not too important for the common use-case
- if a provider is a company you like and trust (or dislike less than the others)
- if a provider implements end-to-end encryption of your data
- if a provider has a data region close to your Matrix server (if it's farther away, high latency may cause slowdowns)
- if a provider's infrastructure such as data center is centralized or distributed
- if a provider's price model is transparent (whether it includes hidden costs like minimum charge, minimum storage term, etc.)
- if a provider has free or cheap egress fee (in case you need to get the data out often, for some reason) - likely not too important for the common use-case
