Unpredictable dollar exposure

Foreign-denominated cloud bills expose local IT operations to Rand volatility and unexpected egress charges.

Who actually owns your data?

The US CLOUD Act lets American authorities compel a US-owned provider to hand over data it holds, regardless of the country your objects are physically stored in. A data-processing agreement does not outrank a subpoena.

Where is it actually residing?

A region name in a console is a billing label, not a location guarantee. Replicas, backups and support copies can move between regions without appearing on your invoice, and only the provider can confirm where they landed.

What will the bill actually say?

The per-gigabyte rate is the smallest line on the invoice. Egress transfers, per-million API requests, provisioned IOPS, retrieval tiers and commitment true-ups each arrive separately, and none of them show up in the pricing calculator.
