Egress is free up to 3x the storage size so for example, if you have 1TB object storage plan, you can use up to 3TB of egress data transfer without any additional cost.

Using Object Storage

Creating Object Storage Service

  1. Log into Onidel Cloud Panel and navigate to Storage > Object Storage. Then, click on Create Object Storage Service button.

  2. Now, choose the:

    • Location - if unsure, you can test the speed and latency to both of our locations using the test files provided at the top of this page.

    • Billing Cycle - annual billing gives you 20% discount. The billing period can be adjusted after the service is created.

    • Service Name - it is not the same as the bucket name. Later, you can create up to 100 unique storage buckets within one service and give a different name for each of them.

    • Storage Size - desired maximum object storage size, starts at 1TB and can be upgraded later. It can not be downgraded later.

    After that, click on Deploy Now and the service should appear in the Object Storage list.

Creating a Bucket

  1. After going to your newly created service, you can see stats about usage of capacity, traffic and active bucket amount. You can also create a new bucket.

  2. Now select the:

    1. Name of your bucket - it will be referenced in apps that use your S3 bucket.

    2. Versioning toggle - if you need to store separate versions of objects uploaded to this bucket. This can increase the storage used by the object if there are multiple versions of it, but it lets you access specific version of the object instead of overwriting it on update. If unsure, leave this disabled. It can be enabled later.

    3. Object Lock toggle - if you want to enable WORM (Write Once Read Many) feature of object storage. This ensures no data can be deleted and that there are always past versions of objects stored. Enabling WORM also turns on Versioning option.

    Then confirm creation by clicking the Create button.

  3. After the bucket is created, you will see it in the Bucket List.
