Hetzner Object Storage
S3-compatible storage in German and Finnish data centres; flat base fee with 1 TB storage and 1 TB egress included, free API calls.
For a few terabytes under German jurisdiction the bill is small and predictable: a €6.49 base fee covers 1 TB stored and 1 TB of egress, after which storage is €6.26 per TB-month and egress €1 per TB, with S3 API calls free. The limits are worth checking first, namely 100 buckets, 100 TB and 50M objects per bucket, and a 64 KB minimum billable object size that penalises many tiny files. The base price rose from €4.99 on 1 April 2026.
