For different storage classes, the unit price, minimum object size, and minimum storage duration are different as described below. The actual costs depend on the use case and storage class of the object.

    Early deletion

    Description
    Involved Storage Class
    Early deletion
    refers to the deletion of an object in the STANDARD_IA, MAZ_STANDARD_IA, ARCHIVE, or DEEP ARCHIVE storage class performed before it meets the minimum storage duration requirement after being uploaded.
    
    
    Note: Early deletion fees will be incurred in storage classes with the minimum storage duration requirement, i.e., STANDARD_IA, MAZ_STANDARD_IA, ARCHIVE, and DEEP ARCHIVE.
    
    
    Billing rule:
    If an object is deleted before it meets the minimum storage duration requirement, the storage usage fees incurred by it will be calculated based on the minimum storage duration as detailed below:
    STANDARD_IA or MAZ_STANDARD_IA storage of data for less than 30 days will be calculated as 30 days.
    ARCHIVE storage of data for less than 90 days will be calculated as 90 days.
    DEEP ARCHIVE storage of data for less than 180 days will be calculated as 180 days.
    
    The following operations may cause early deletion:
    1. You delete an object in advance before it meets the minimum storage duration requirement.
    2. You modify the attributes of an object before it meets the minimum storage duration requirement, such as custom header or storage class. In this case, COS will delete the original object after successful modification, and storage fees incurred by early object deletion will be charged.
    3. You upload an object with the same name as an existing object to a bucket with versioning not enabled before the existing object meets the minimum storage duration requirement. In this case, COS will delete the existing object, and storage fees incurred by early object deletion will be charged.

    Billing Mode and Calculation Formula

    Billing Mode
    Calculation Formula
    Pay-as-you-go
    Daily billing cycle
    Daily storage usage fees = monthly unit price / 30 * daily storage usage
    Daily storage usage = sum of "5-minute usage" / 288 (number of statistical points)
    

    Storage Usage Pricing

    Note: For the unit prices of storage usage, see Pricing | Cloud Object Storage.

    Billing Examples

    Note:
    Prices in the examples below are for reference only. For the actual prices, see Pricing | Cloud Object Storage.
    The storage capacity is calculated in binary, for example, 1 TB = 1024 GB.

    Example 1: STANDARD storage usage fees + STANDARD request fees

    Assume that on November 1, 2020, user A uploaded 10 GB of data to a bucket residing in Guangzhou region in the STANDARD storage class, generating 100 requests. Apart from this, user A did not perform any other operations in November. As fees for Mona day were settled the next day:
    STANDARD storage usage fees: Settled daily starting from November 2, 2020.
    STANDARD request fees: Settled on November 2, 2020.
    Fees analysis:
    STANDARD storage usage fees = 0.024 USD/GB/month / 30 * 10 GB * 30 days = 0.24 USD
    STANDARD request fees = 0.002 USD/10,000 requests * 100 requests / 10,000 = 0.00002 USD
    In summary, the total bill for user A in November is calculated as follows: 0.24 + 0.00002 = 0.24002 USD.

    Example 2: STANDARD_IA storage usage fees + STANDARD_IA request fees

    Assume that on November 1, 2020, user B uploaded 10 GB of data (including 10,000 pieces of 30 KB objects) to a bucket residing in Guangzhou region in the STANDARD_IA storage class, generating 100 requests. Apart from this, user B did not perform any other operations in November. As fees for a day were settled the next day:
    STANDARD_IA storage usage fees: Settled daily starting from November 2, 2020.
    STANDARD_IA request fees: Settled on November 2, 2020.
    Fees analysis:
    STANDARD_IA storage usage = 10 GB + 10,000 * 30 KB = 10.286 GB
    STANDARD_IA storage usage fees = 0.018 USD/GB/month / 30 * 10.286 GB * 30 days = 0.19 USD
    STANDARD_IA request fees = 0.01 USD/10,000 requests * 100 requests / 10,000 = 0.0001 USD
    In summary, the total bill for user B in November is calculated as follows: 0.19 + 0.0001 = 0.1901 USD.
