Prices shown in GBP. Prices exclude VAT; VAT is added at checkout. During the beta the 5 TB and 10 TB plans are not on sale because of capacity. When the included traffic runs out your buckets stay open; only outbound speed is limited (~10 Mbit/s per bucket) and you can buy an extra traffic pack in the panel (+1 TB €4.99). There is no end-of-month overage invoice.

What is it for?

Off your server, but close by

Keep a copy of your data away from the production server, stop disks from filling up and serve files straight to applications.

  • Server and site backups

    Back up every night with restic, rclone or your own script; the backup survives a server failure.

  • Veeam and cPanel target

    Add it as an "S3 Compatible" target in Veeam Backup & Replication and in WHM backups.

  • Media and static files

    Move images, videos and downloads off the web server's disk.

  • Logs and archives

    Keep application logs and files you must retain, tidy and affordable.

  • Static website

    Publish a bucket with index.html as a static site, on your own domain if you like, with free SSL.

  • Application data

    Store user uploads through the S3 API; set a CORS rule in the panel for browser uploads.

Connect

With the tools you know, by changing endpoint and region

Both path style and virtual host style (bucket.s3.gyrohosting.com) work. The region name is tr-ist-1.

aws-cli
aws configure set region tr-ist-1
aws --endpoint-url https://s3.gyrohosting.com \
    s3 sync ./yedek s3://firma-yedek/
rclone
[gyro]
type = s3
provider = Other
endpoint = https://s3.gyrohosting.com
region = tr-ist-1
force_path_style = true
restic
export RESTIC_REPOSITORY=\
  s3:https://s3.gyrohosting.com/firma-yedek/restic

You create access keys in the client area; the secret is shown only once when it is created. Give each key read or read+write access per bucket. Keys cannot create or delete buckets; bucket actions are done in the panel.

Plain talk

Beta: what is in, what is not

The service is in beta. We list up front what we offer and what we do not offer yet.

Included

  • S3 API: upload, download, listing, multipart upload, time-limited share links (presigned URLs)
  • Per-key bucket permissions: read, read+write or no access
  • Static website on your own domain; SSL certificate issued automatically and free
  • Lifecycle: automatic deletion of expired objects and incomplete uploads
  • Per-bucket CORS rule and SSE-C (server-side encryption with your own key)
  • Usage chart, 80%/100% quota alerts; RAID 5 protected storage

Not yet

  • A second location or separate copy: data is kept in one location in Istanbul
  • SLA or availability commitment (beta)
  • Versioning and Object Lock (immutable backups): planned with the new 48 TB infrastructure
  • Bucket policies and ACLs (per-key bucket permissions instead)
  • Storage class transitions and object tagging

Data location: NetDC Data Center, Bağcılar, Istanbul, Türkiye. We recommend keeping another copy of important data elsewhere too.

Coming soon

Add-on services in the works

We are working on two services that can be added for a separate fee after the beta.

  • Coming soon

    Geo-replication

    An encrypted copy of the buckets you choose is sent to a second location every night. Transfers abroad happen only with your explicit consent.

  • Coming soon

    Automatic server backup

    Automatic, monitored backups for your Gyro VDS, cloud servers and cPanel/Plesk services, switched on from the panel.

Getting started

Start in three steps

  1. Step 1

    Choose a plan

    After payment your first bucket and one access key are created automatically.

  2. Step 2

    Get your key

    View the secret once in the client area and store it. Create new keys when needed.

  3. Step 3

    Connect

    Copy the ready aws-cli, rclone, restic, Veeam and cPanel examples from the panel.

FAQ

About object storage

Contact form
Where is the data center?
Our object storage server runs on our own hardware at NetDC Data Center, Bağcılar, Istanbul, Türkiye.
What does S3 compatible mean?
Tools and apps written for Amazon S3 work with this service by changing the endpoint, region and key: aws-cli, rclone, restic, Veeam, cPanel and S3-enabled WordPress plugins, for example.
Where is my data and how is it protected?
Data is kept in a single location in Istanbul on disks protected by hardware RAID 5; a single disk failure does not lose data. There is no copy in a second location. We recommend keeping another copy of important data elsewhere.
What happens when the plan is full?
New uploads are refused with HTTP 403; reads and deletes keep working. You get an email at 80% and 100%. You can move to a larger plan in the panel.
How is traffic charged? What happens when the included traffic runs out?
Every plan includes monthly outbound traffic; uploads and API requests are free. When the included traffic runs out your buckets stay open and there is no surprise invoice: only outbound speed is limited to about 10 Mbit/s per bucket. We e-mail you at 80% and when the limit starts. In the panel you can buy a prepaid extra traffic pack (+1 TB €4.99, +5 TB €19.99); the limit is lifted within minutes after payment. Extra traffic is valid only in the calendar month of purchase and does not roll over. The limit is also lifted when the new month starts.
How is the quota shared between buckets?
The plan size covers all your buckets together. You decide how much goes where; the system redistributes the remaining space to your buckets every few minutes.
How many buckets and access keys can I have?
The bucket count depends on the plan (5 on 250 GB, 10 on 1 TB). Each service can have up to 5 access keys; you set read, read+write or no access per bucket for each key.
Is there versioning or Object Lock?
Not yet. Versioning and Object Lock (immutable backups) are planned with the new 48 TB storage infrastructure. For now, against ransomware we recommend encrypted backup tools that keep history, such as restic, and a separate key on the backup server that can write only to the bucket it needs.
Can I publish my bucket as a website on my own domain?
Yes. Enable the static website for the bucket in the panel; the address looks like bucket-name-k7f2.web.gyro-s3.com (the short code at the end is unique to your service; bucket names only need to be unique within your own service, other customers may use the same name). For your own domain, point a CNAME to that address and verify it in the panel; the SSL certificate is issued automatically and free. The website is off by default and you accept the abuse rules when you turn it on.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
On cancellation your access keys are closed at once. Buckets and their data are deleted permanently after the grace period; the date is sent to you by email.
Why beta? Is there an SLA?
The service runs in a single location with limited capacity as a beta. During this period we do not give an SLA or availability commitment. Geo-replication and automatic backup add-ons are in the works.
Can I give a key read-only access?
Yes. For every access key choose read, read+write or no access per bucket. To share a single file, create a time-limited share link (1 hour to 7 days) instead of handing out a key. ACL headers such as x-amz-acl are ignored.
Can old files be deleted automatically?
Yes. Lifecycle rules delete objects under a prefix (e.g. logs/) after N days and clean up incomplete multipart uploads. Rules run once a day.
