# Bunny Storage vs Storj

Canonical: https://inetgeek.com/compare/bunny-storage-vs-storj/

Every value below is read from Bunny Storage's and Storj's own documentation. See https://inetgeek.com/methodology/ for how.

## At a glance

| Criterion | Bunny Storage | Storj |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Egress over allowance | Free to Bunny's own CDN, and no API fees or API egress charges. Bunny prices storage by replication rather than by transfer. | $7 per TB, the same rate as storage — reduced from $20 per TB on the Standard tier. Storj charges for egress where R2, Wasabi and Tigris do not, but at a tenth of what S3 charges. |
| Storage price | $0.01 per GB per month on Standard HDD for up to two regions, then $0.005 per additional region up to nine. Edge SSD is $0.02 per GB per region across up to fifteen. Three regions on Standard is $0.025 per GB. | $7 per TB per month, which is $0.007 per GB. A $5 monthly minimum applies to Standard and Advanced accounts. |
| Operations price | None. Bunny states no API fees. | Segment fees have been eliminated across all new tiers. They still apply to accounts on legacy plans. |

## Which should you choose?

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 Storj if Workloads that want data spread across many independent locations rather than one provider's region, at a storage rate close to the cheapest here.

Consider something else: 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.

Consider something else: Storj — Egress is charged at the same $7 per TB as storage, so a read-heavy workload costs roughly double what the storage line suggests — the three free-egress providers here charge nothing for it.

## Documented by only one

- Pricing model: Bunny Storage: Per region rather than per gigabyte alone: replication is the price axis, so cost scales with how many of Bunny's regions hold a copy. True pay-as-you-go with a $1 monthly minimum and no commitments.
- Regions: Storj: Distributed across tens of thousands of storage locations globally rather than named regions; a US-only option runs on SOC 2 type 2 compliant data centres.
- S3-compatible API: Storj: Supported
