I'm curious, how they actually be able to reduce the transfer costs from AWS? Do they know some smart way to avoid paying to Amazon for the transfer and still be able to get the data out? Doesn't seems legit at all.

R2 is still under development, we will see how it will work, but I can tell you how Tebi.io global replication works: - Writes and reads always goes to the closest region, this keeps network latency low. You can define different metadata wr

Check tebi.io - it is a geo-distributed S3-compatible storage that does exactly that. You can configure global consistency level for each bucket individually.

This is true - most of the object storage providers are really bad at serving data fast, they more focused on a cold storage. Tebi.io works really fast for small files, plus it is a geo-distributed object storage meaning that data is physic

You need to account IO load as well, more bandwidth means more requests to the disks and I assume they will use mechanical HDDs for the storage, SSDs are still too expensive to support $0.015/GB. Good mechanical drive can give you up t

I suggest to use constant quality encoding instead of a constant bitrate, this way encoder will automatically adapt bitrate for a particular scene. This is a much better approach, it will give you better quality and a smaller file at the sa

Actually many companies are trying/tried to compete with AWS especially in an egress price territory but because of a lack of exposure it is very hard to get a traction and get big enough. And there is a lot of things that can be impro

Like: They are pushing the web and technology in general by inventing a ton of different services. This is really nice. Dislike: Traffic price is just crazy high, it is simply impossible to start anything that is bandwidth-heavy, they might

https://tebi.io/ charge for the storage, you can define how many copies and where you want to store your data and a flat egress fee

https://tebi.io/ has a solution - you always upload to the closest server in your region that is much faster then upload to a central location.
