Bunny Storage vs Cloudflare R2
A comparison of Bunny Storage and Cloudflare R2 built from values read directly from each provider's own documentation, with the source recorded against every figure.
The short answer
- Pick Bunny Storage if
- Assets served from a CDN, where paying per replicated region buys latency you would otherwise build yourself — and traffic to Bunny's CDN costs nothing.
- Pick Cloudflare R2 if
- Serving files to the public, where egress is the bill everyone underestimates. Nothing to pay for bandwidth out, on any storage class, so a busy bucket costs what it costs to store rather than what it costs to read.
3 sourced criteria separate them:
- Egress over allowance
- Bunny Storage: Free to Bunny's own CDN, and no API fees or API egress charges. Bunny prices storage by replication rather than by transfer.
- Cloudflare R2: Free. Cloudflare charges nothing for egress to the internet on any storage class; Infrequent Access adds a $0.01/GB retrieval fee instead.
- Storage price

- Cloudflare R2: $0.015 per GB-month for Standard, $0.01 for Infrequent Access. Billed rounded up to the whole GB-month.
- Operations price

Consider something else if…
- Bunny Storage: Replication is the price axis, so multi-region storage costs a multiple of single-region rather than a premium, and it is a CDN origin rather than a general-purpose S3 endpoint.
- Cloudflare R2: Operations are charged and rounded up to the whole million, so a workload of many tiny reads and writes pays here instead. The saving is on bandwidth, not on request volume.
