Price OCI Object Storage across Standard and Infrequent Access with requests, the 31-day minimum and free 10 TB egress.
Storage is the sum of each tier's GB-month charge, but Infrequent Access carries a 31-day minimum: an object deleted on day 20 is still billed for the remaining 11 days, which this model prices as a shortfall line. Egress is metered only above the free allowance, so a workload that ships less than 10 TB a month pays nothing at all for outbound transfer. The free 10 TB of egress and the flat per-GB rate above it are a genuine OCI differentiator, and the 31-day minimum is the one rule that quietly makes Infrequent Access more expensive than Standard for short-lived data. Confirm every per-GB rate in the Oracle Cloud cost estimator for your region.
OCI Object Storage
monthly = Standard GB × Standard rate + IA GB × IA rate + IA rate × (31 − lifetime days) ÷ 31 × IA GB + requests ÷ 10,000 × request price + max(0, egress GB − free GB) × egress rate.

This calculator takes 10 inputs: Data in Standard, Data in Infrequent Access, Standard price per GB-month, Infrequent Access price per GB-month, Average lifetime of Infrequent Access objects, Requests per month, Price per 10,000 requests, Outbound data transfer, Free egress allowance, Egress price per GB above the allowance. The pre-filled defaults are a realistic starting point — replace them with figures from your own environment for a result you can act on.
