Exoscale Object Storage

by Exoscale ยท ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ Switzerland

Exoscale Object Storage is an S3-compatible bucket service billed by stored volume and traffic. Buckets are created in the zones Exoscale operates in Switzerland, Germany, Austria and Bulgaria. It is sold alongside the company's compute service rather than as a standalone product.

A European alternative to Amazon S3.
