I was going to back up my photos to AWS Glacier before noticing that retrieval costs are multiple times the storage cost. I guess that is possibly OK for a backup but scared me into a physical alternative. http://liangzan.net/aws-glacier-calculator/
I'm fairly certain that the calculator you linked is incorrect. Unless I'm not understanding the Glacier pricing page, it should cost at most $1,240 to store 10TB for 30 days and then re-retrieve over the internet (even at the expedited retrieval rate). The calculator shows the same setup (albeit with some of the rate information hidden) as costing $3,934.91 Backblaze B2 has no retrieval cost, so the same setup (stor…

Curious - at what POP have you been quoted $400/month for a gigabit connection from HE?
Its not a quote, but a well known, long running cabinet special for 42u (aka a dedicated full rack) and 15 amps of power: https://he.net/special.pdf Other datacenters can go cheaper if you need less rackspace and power, bandwidth is cheap!

B2 has retrieval cost, the first 10GB each month is free.

I'm trying to use the nomenclature from the Glacier pricing page, where "transfer" is the verb to reference the cost per GB downloading the data from the remote provider. Glacier has an additional "retrieval" cost per GB that B2 and others do not (because they most likely have to physically retrieve a tape/HDD drive with your data on it). https://aws.amazon.com/glacier/pricing/ https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-stor…

I was going to ask the same thing, what's up with that. Why is there no continuous connextion?
Back when I was in Google Netops we had a healthy (unofficial) fear of having the backbone connect all the way around the world in a circle, especially with high-enough bandwidth links that both directions would start to look attractive to traffic management.
