OCI Object Storage

$ Budgetfrom $2/mo · Last reviewed May 2026

OCI Object Storage is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's object storage service, offering Standard, Infrequent Access, and Archive tiers with both a native and an S3-compatible API. It is notable for a generous free allotment: OCI Always Free includes 20GB of combined object storage perpetually, plus 10TB/month of free egress before low per-GB rates apply. It targets enterprises and developers, with 11-nines durability and a published availability SLA. OCI holds ISO 27001 and SOC 1/2/3 attestations with PCI DSS reference architectures, though its OCI-native API keeps lock-in moderate despite S3 compatibility.
