Ask HN: Good cloud storage solution for user data
I am nearing completion of my application. I need cloud storage for my user data. Since I will charge my users for storage + processing, I am looking for a top quality service provider and am not interested in free offers.
The mode of working is: user <--> backend <--> storage.
My main requirements are service uptime and data fidelity (by that I mean data must not get corrupted; what I put I must get back). Backup storage is optional. Encryption is unimportant since my backend anyway encrypts all the data. Probably something between AWS S3 and Google Cloud Storage would work for the case you mention. There may be other cheaper options but I can't tell about uptime (assuming you are looking for 99.9%+).
