Why The Nerdy Cloud Guy Prefers Wasabi S3 Over AWS S3 – and How It Benefits Our Customers
At The Nerdy Cloud Guy, we’re always looking for smarter, cost-effective, and reliable solutions for our customers. While AWS S3 is often considered the gold standard for object storage, our choice to use Wasabi S3 reflects our commitment to finding tools that align with our philosophy of delivering value, simplicity, and flexibility. Here’s why we prefer Wasabi S3 and how it benefits our customers.
Why Wasabi S3?
1. Cost-Effectiveness
Wasabi S3 provides storage at a fraction of the cost of AWS S3. With Wasabi, there are no hidden API requests or data egress fees. This means predictable pricing, which translates into significant savings for our customers—especially those with large datasets or heavy storage needs.
2. Performance
Wasabi isn’t just affordable; it’s also blazing fast. With higher read/write speeds than AWS S3 in many scenarios, Wasabi enables quicker access to stored data, which is essential for time-sensitive operations and seamless integrations.
3. No Charges for Egress or API Requests
With AWS S3, costs can spiral due to egress charges and API requests. Wasabi eliminates these fees, offering unlimited egress. This is a game-changer for businesses that frequently move data in and out of storage.
4. Data Durability and Security
Wasabi matches AWS S3 in terms of data durability (11 nines—99.999999999%) and provides enterprise-grade security. Features like immutable buckets help protect data from accidental deletions, ransomware attacks, and tampering—critical for peace of mind.
5. Simplicity
Wasabi’s storage system is simple and intuitive. It integrates seamlessly with the same tools and APIs as AWS S3, allowing us to migrate and manage your storage effortlessly.
