Wasabi
Wasabi provides cloud object storage for backups, media libraries and other files that need to live outside an application server. It fits teams that already use an S3-compatible backup tool and want a separate storage destination without moving their website or database.

About Wasabi
Hosting options
Hot Cloud Storage keeps objects accessible through an S3-compatible interface. Object Lock can protect retained objects from deletion, while account permissions control which applications can reach a bucket. These features are useful for a backup destination, but the backup application still decides what to copy and when.
Wasabi also offers reserved-capacity purchasing. That is a different commercial arrangement from monthly usage billing, aimed at customers who can commit to a capacity and term.
Prices and billing
Wasabi’s pay-as-you-go storage starts at $7.99 per TB per month, with no charges for API requests or data downloads. Reserved Capacity Storage lets you commit to a set amount of storage for one, three or five years. For a small backup or files you replace often, minimum storage and retention terms can affect the bill, so include those conditions in your cost comparison.
Where your data is hosted
Choose the storage region for the bucket and check the corresponding service endpoint. A storage location is separate from the location of the server sending backups.
Support
Pay-as-you-go includes Basic support; the reserved-capacity offer includes Premium support. Backup software support may belong to the software vendor.
Things to consider
Object storage does not run PHP, containers or a database. Keep application compute elsewhere. For recovery planning, record the bucket, permissions and retention settings so a replacement server can reach the backup.
