Features and benefits

  • Standard storage costs $0.015 per GB-month; Class A operations cost $4.50 per million requests and Class B cost $0.36 per million requests.
  • Monthly Standard free allowance: 10 GB-month storage, 1 million Class A requests, and 10 million Class B requests; internet egress has no charge.
  • S3-compatible API and usage-based billing make it suitable for application objects and backup archives.

Limitations

  • The free allowance applies only to Standard storage, not Infrequent Access. Usage above included allowances is billed; Cloudflare rounds usage up to the next billing unit.
  • Infrequent Access adds $0.01/GB retrieval charges and has a 30-day minimum storage duration; other metered Cloudflare services connected to R2 may add charges.
  • This is object storage, not a complete backup-management service; backup scheduling, retention policy, encryption, and restore testing remain workload responsibilities.
