Data
Availability: AvailableS3-compatible Basin buckets in-region, with free egress
Create S3-compatible Basin buckets with their own scoped credentials, keep bytes in-region, and pay $0.04 per GB-month with zero egress fees.
What you get
S3-compatible API
Standard SDKs and tools call GetObject, PutObject, ListBucket, and DeleteObject against the Basin endpoint.
Per-bucket credentials
Every bucket ships its own scoped S3 key and secret, written into your project and private by default.
Free egress, always
Downloads cost $0 per GB. Free egress is a standing policy, not a promo rate that expires.
Stable endpoint
Point SDKs at s3.me-central-1.alawadi.cloud; basin.alawadi.cloud stays a permanent alias so saved configs keep working.
In-region storage
Objects live in the UAE (me-central-1) region, next to your containers and databases for low-latency reads.
Pay with vouchers
Storage is metered hourly against your prepaid balance; top up with a voucher, no card needed.

Pay as you store
We meter GB-hours hourly and debit your prepaid balance at $0.04 per GB-month. Egress stays free.

Questions
Which S3 operations are supported?
Standard object calls like GetObject, PutObject, ListBucket, and DeleteObject work with common S3 SDKs and tools.
What does egress cost?
Nothing. Egress is $0 per GB, and that is a standing differentiator, not a temporary rate that expires.
Are buckets public?
No. Every bucket is private by default with its own scoped credentials. Public-read buckets are not offered yet.
Which region stores my data?
The UAE (me-central-1) region today. Reach it at s3.me-central-1.alawadi.cloud or the basin.alawadi.cloud alias.
