Has there been any consideration of a cold-storage tier?
There are likely users (myself included) with data that:
- does not require hot or warm storage
- does not need cross-region availability
- can tolerate significantly lower access speeds
I understand that Xet and the newer storage limits reductions focus heavily on reducing your opex costs because there was a lot of abuse re: users hosting video files and uploading bogus. However, some legitmate workloads involve large static assets that are rarely accessed but still useful to keep hosted (natural disaster/fire reasons 😅)
I’m curious whether something like a lower-cost (and much slower) archival tier might eventually make sense for these cases?
