Petabyte retention
without the petabyte bill.
S3-compatible storage at $4.99/TB flat, with zero egress fees so re-analysis doesn't cost extra. Keep the whole dataset, for years.

Petabyte datasets cost petabytes to keep and petabytes to re-analyse.
Genomics data is produced once but analysed repeatedly, often years later as pipelines improve. Standard storage pricing charges again on every analysis.
1 PB on AWS costs $22,067/month.
AWS S3 Standard at tiered rates — $0.023/GB for the first 50 TB, $0.022 for the next 450 TB, $0.021 after — adds up to $22,067/month for a single petabyte. Before a single analysis read.
Running a new pipeline means paying egress again.
Re-analysing 200 TB of sequencing data with a new variant-calling pipeline incurs 204,800 GB × $0.09 = $18,432 in egress on AWS. Teams plan re-analysis cycles around the egress cost, not the science.
Cold storage means waiting to analyse.
Archive tiers save on storage but add retrieval delays and fees before a dataset is usable again. A five-year-old dataset should be as fast to query as one uploaded yesterday.
1 PB stored. 200 TB re-analysed per month.
Monthly storage for 1 PB plus egress for 200 TB of analysis reads. Computed from public US rate cards, Q2 2026.

AWS S3 Standard us-east-1 Q2 2026 storage: tiered rates — first 50 TB $0.023/GB ($1,177.60), next 450 TB $0.022/GB ($10,137.60), over 500 TB $0.021/GB ($10,752.00) = $22,067.20 for 1,024,000 GB. AWS egress: 204,800 GB × $0.09 = $18,432. Fil One: 1,000 TB × $4.99 = $4,990, egress $0.
Keep the whole dataset. For years.
S3-compatible storage built for data that's written once and read for years.
Object Lock retention
Configure retention from 1 day to 100 years at the bucket level, so a long-retention dataset can't be deleted or altered early.
No egress on analysis
Re-analysing the dataset from a new pipeline, re-running variant calling, or sharing data with collaborators costs $0 in egress. The cost is the bytes you keep.
Consistent at any scale
The same S3 API whether you store 1 TB or 1 PB. No storage tiers, no rehydration delay before a dataset is usable.
Flat petabyte pricing
$4.99/TB regardless of scale. 1 TB and 1 PB pay the same rate per TB. Retention decisions are not driven by storage-tier economics.
