Head-to-Head Comparison
OVHcloud Standard vs Backblaze B2 Pricing (2026)
OVH Standard bills $8.11/TB with $0 egress across EU and US regions and $0 API request fees. B2 bills $6.95/TB with $0 request fees too, and its first 3x of stored data ships free every month; beyond that, egress is $0.01/GB. At 5 TB stored and 5 TB served the engine prices OVH Standard at $40.55 and B2 at $34.75. The storage rate decides the quiet case in B2's favor; the free-egress terms decide the download-heavy case, and there OVH's blanket $0 egress (no 3x allowance to burn through) is the simpler contract.
