Why Filecoin Onchain Cloud

Not just cheaper storage — storage you can independently verify, with no single vendor holding your data hostage.

Comparison of traditional cloud storage and Filecoin Onchain Cloud
DimensionTraditional cloud storageFilecoin Onchain Cloud
VerifiabilityTrust the vendor’s SLA — no proof your data is intactContinuous onchain proofs (PDP, every few minutes) confirm your data is actually stored
PricingOpaque tiers, egress fees that can dwarf the storage billTransparent onchain pricing from $2.50/TiB/month, published per provider
Vendor lock-inOne vendor controls your data, pricing, and availabilityOpen marketplace of independent storage providers you can move between
Payment modelYou pay whether or not the vendor actually deliversPayments pause automatically the moment proofs fail — pay only for what’s proven
