Object Storage
Hetzner’s Object Storage is an S3-compatible solution built for storing unstructured data where per-bucket pricing applies. It handles standard object storage tasks while explicitly charging nothing for internal traffic, which simplifies cost calculations for applications communicating within the Hetzner ecosystem. The model is strictly pay-as-you-go, starting at $0.0052 per GB/month.
This setup suits teams already operating on Hetzner infrastructure who need predictable egress costs. The main friction point is the complete absence of a free tier. You pay from the first byte, so small-scale testing or hobby projects incur immediate costs, making it less attractive for prototyping compared to providers with trial allowances.
