Features

Storage Utilization

The Storage Utilization page provides visibility into how much object storage your organization consumes over time. This view is used primarily for usage tracking and billing reference.

Storage Utilization

Daily Calculation Model

  • Storage metrics are calculated once per day, at the end of each day.
  • Values shown represent a daily snapshot, not real-time usage.
  • Changes made during the current day (uploads or deletions) will be reflected after the daily calculation completes.

Storage Categories

Storage utilization is broken down into the following components:

Total Storage

  • Represents the sum of Active Storage and Deleted Storage.
  • This value is used as the basis for monthly storage billing.

Active Storage

  • Size of all currently existing objects in the bucket.
  • Includes all live objects accessible via CDN or S3 API.

Deleted Storage

  • Size of objects that have been deleted but are still within the 90-day retention period.
  • Deleted storage continues to count toward total storage usage until permanently expired.

Total Objects

  • Number of objects currently stored (active objects only).
  • Deleted objects are not included in this count.

Utilization Breakdown Chart

The chart displays daily storage usage for the selected month:

  • Total Storage – combined active and deleted storage
  • Active Objects – live object storage size
  • Deleted Objects – retained deleted object storage size

Hovering over a specific date reveals the exact values recorded for that day.

Monthly View

  • Storage utilization is displayed per calendar month.
  • You can switch months to review historical storage growth or deletion patterns.
  • Early-month values may appear low if objects were uploaded later in the month.

Unit Conversion (Base-2)

All storage values use base-2 (binary) conversion, consistent with object storage standards:

  • 1 GB = 1024 MB
  • 1 MB = 1024 KB
  • 1 KB = 1024 Bytes
  • 1 GB = 1,073,741,824 Bytes

This differs from bandwidth and traffic metrics, which use base-10 conversion.

Billing Implications

  • Daily storage values are accumulated to calculate monthly storage usage.
  • Both Active Storage and Deleted Storage contribute to billing totals.
  • Uploading objects late in the month results in partial-month billing, proportional to remaining days.

Key Notes

  • Storage utilization is not real-time.
  • Deleted storage impacts cost until the retention period expires.
  • Use this page to monitor storage growth trends and deletion behavior over time.
