Cloud Storage Pricing Based on Usage Explained

Cyfuture Cloud employs a pay-as-you-go pricing model for storage, where costs are directly tied to usage—such as storage volume consumed, data transfer, and selected performance tiers—ensuring you only pay for what you use without hidden fees or long-term commitments.​

How Cyfuture Cloud Storage Pricing Works

Cyfuture Cloud's storage pricing scales with your actual consumption, making it ideal for businesses with variable data needs. For object and block storage, the base rate starts at a minimum of $3.34 per month for up to 100 GB, then drops to $0.03 per GB for additional volume, with unlimited data transfer across two regions for high availability. Standard SSD storage costs $0.09 per GB per month, while premium SSD options are priced at $0.04 per GB per month, allowing selection based on workload demands like databases or analytics.​

This usage-based approach includes volume discounts for larger storage needs, transparent billing with no surprises, and easy scalability—upgrade or downgrade seamlessly as data grows. Data transfer remains unlimited in most plans, eliminating extra bandwidth fees, while features like multiple IOPS tiers optimize performance without overpaying. For example, a business storing 500 GB would pay around $15 monthly for standard object storage (after the initial tier), plus any premium tier adjustments, calculated precisely via Cyfuture Cloud's pricing calculator.​

Additional factors like API requests or snapshot storage may apply minimally, but the core model emphasizes predictability: provision storage on-demand, monitor usage in real-time through the dashboard, and benefit from free trials to test fit. This contrasts with fixed subscriptions by aligning costs to peaks and troughs, reducing waste for Cyfuture Cloud users in India and beyond.​

Conclusion

Cyfuture Cloud's usage-based cloud storage pricing delivers flexibility, affordability, and transparency, empowering businesses to manage data costs efficiently while scaling effortlessly. By paying only for consumed resources, organizations avoid overprovisioning and focus on growth.​
