That's pretty cheap.
OVH backup service (hubic) that uses OpenStack object storage is 0.0009765625 cents per GB
I couldnt get the RunAbove to work with Python-swiftclient. Did anyone else get it working?
I got it working with both Cyberduck and Cloudfuse... Make sure you use your "project name/id" as tenant name, your email as username, and your account password as secret/password, and authurl=https://auth.runabove.io/v2.0
P.S.: They use Keystone as identity service.
In Cyberduck:
1. Open Connection
2. Choose "Swift (OpenStack Object Storage)
3. Server auth.runabove.io
4. port 443
5. username - enter my login email address here
6. Path /v2.0
Press connect
Prompted to add username:
I get an error 404 here. Also, I dont see any place to enter my project name/id. Are project name/id two different things? I see that the RC file I can download from RunAbove has OS_TENANT_ID and OS_TENANT_NAME - not sure which one to use here.
You have to download the keystone profile: https://svn.cyberduck.ch/trunk/profiles/Openstack Swift (Keystone).cyberduckprofile
Use the Tenant Name as username, the ID is actually your API key but you don't need it in this case.

You know.. I feel pretty dumb.. I cant get it to work with cyberduck. I wish they RunAbove had instructions for dummies. Or maybe its my account or something.
Totally agree with you, they should provide instructions because I too spent like 3h just to figure it out... The information they provide is not even clear (even in the RC file). Just make sure you use the profile I linked.
can this be used as offsite backup storage via rsync?
Not using rsync but it works perfectly with duplicity. You can always use cloudfuse and mount the storage directly on your server.
