Tencent Cloud Object Storage (COS) is an S3-compatible object storage service with Standard, Infrequent Access and Archive tiers, durability of 12 nines, and per-GB-month storage plus separately billed traffic. Its free tier is time-limited (a 6-month new-user resource pack for Standard storage) rather than a perpetual allotment. It targets enterprises and developers, particularly across Asia-Pacific, and carries ISO 27001, SOC 1/2/3 and CSA STAR attestations. The S3-compatible API keeps vendor lock-in moderate and eases data export across clouds.
