IBEE Object Storage charges based on the total volume of data stored, internet egress, and two classes of API operations:
Uploads are free. Traffic between Object Storage and IBEE services in the same region is free.
All included usage is on a monthly basis.
Eligible early users may receive the Promo plan for 90 days. Included usage resets each month. Once your included usage is exhausted, usage is charged at the pay-as-you-go rates below.
Storage is billed using GB-month as the billing metric. This means charges depend on both the amount of data stored and how long it is stored during the billing period.
For example:
These are illustrative examples to explain how storage billing works.

Public downloads are available through dl-{project_id}.blob.dev or your own custom domain.
These are default platform limits. If you expect sustained high request rates or large public download volumes, contact support.
If an account stores 8 GB throughout the month, uses 20 GB of internet egress, makes 500,000 Class A requests, and makes 5 million Class B requests in a month, the estimated cost for the month would be:
If an account stores 200 GB throughout the month, uses 500 GB of internet egress, makes 5 million Class A requests, and makes 50 million Class B requests in a month, the estimated cost for the month would be:

Yes. Traffic between Object Storage and IBEE services in the same region is free.
API operations are billed in two categories. Class A covers write and mutation operations such as uploads and multipart upload writes. Class B covers read and retrieval operations such as downloads and metadata reads.

Ingress is free but subject to fair-use protections and abuse prevention controls. Accounts with unusually high or abusive upload activity may be rate limited or reviewed to protect platform reliability.
