One block size. An invoice you can forecast.
Storm Buckets speaks S3. The tools you already run reach it unchanged: the AWS CLI, rclone, Veeam, Restic, any S3 SDK.
Billing off Billing is not switched on yet. We're focused on building, testing, and hardening the platform. The prices below are what you'll pay when billing goes live. Nothing is charged during the alpha.
1 TB of capacity. Add more in 1 TB blocks.
- ✓ Stack blocks as you grow
- ✓ Buckets and keys are not billed units
- ✓ Custom domains + static hosting
- ✓ Audit logs
Founding Alpha A 70 GB grant for alpha testing, plus all features unlocked. The grant persists past alpha as your permanent Founding Alpha allocation. Create a Storm account, then request Buckets access: Storm activates it per account.
Hosting a static site? The same bucket can serve it, hosting is included in the block. Storm Sites →
A block is capacity for your own data, applications, and sites. The Acceptable Use Policy sets the boundary, and abuse reports are acknowledged within 48 hours.

Pick the endpoint, the blocks and the months. We send you an invoice.
We accept Interac e-Transfer. Send the amount to billing@stormdevelopments.ca with the invoice number in the message; capacity lands when the payment is recorded. Blocks sell on montreal-1 once it opens; until then billing is off, and alpha capacity is never billed.
The full breakdown of what is metered and what is not, including ingress, API operations, and the egress allowance, is in the pricing guide. Terms are in the Terms of Service, and section 4 covers what the alpha endpoint means for the service you get.
Who leases us each published cluster's hardware, the building it sits in, and who owns both: where your data lives.
