Object Storage Service:Temporary storage fees

Last Updated:Mar 20, 2026

When you restore a Cold Archive or Deep Cold Archive object in Object Storage Service (OSS), OSS generates a locally redundant storage (LRS) replica for temporary access. You are billed for both the original object and the temporary replica — these fees are calculated separately.

Important

Temporary storage fees and the original object's storage fees are billed independently. For example, restoring a 1 GB Cold Archive or Deep Cold Archive object for one day incurs two charges: the storage fee for the Cold Archive or Deep Cold Archive object, and the temporary storage fee for a 1 GB Standard replica for that day.

For unit prices, see Object Storage Service pricing.
