# Opening Object Storage in Vienna, Austria

Today we are excited to announce the general availability of the AT-VIE-1 zone in Vienna, Austria, for our S3 compatible Object Storage service! 🇦🇹

Already available in our German and Swiss zones, our [Object Storage](https://www.exoscale.com/object-storage/) service is now available in every country served by Exoscale, offering a storage solution for your data across Europe, and in our ever-expanding locations.

## The DACH Object Storage solution to keep your data in your country.

As a truly European Cloud Provider, Exoscale knows the importance of keeping the data local, as required by multiple national regulations in several data-sensitive industries.

We have offered Object Storage services in Switzerland [since 2014](https://www.exoscale.com/blog/introducing-sos/), and after opening our [Frankfurt zone](https://www.exoscale.com/blog/announcing-frankfurt-zone/) in 2017 we released the Object Storage in [Germany](https://www.exoscale.com/blog/object-storage-available-in-germany/) last summer, taking advantage of a [newly developed generation](https://www.exoscale.com/blog/object-storage/) of its control software.

The same Object Storage has been [chosen by the CERN HNSciCloud project](https://www.exoscale.com/blog/exoscale-10k-cpus/) to trial a hybrid cloud storage solution for their scientific Big Data workloads, aiming to store [up to 1 Petabyte](https://www.exoscale.com/blog/cern-on-exoscale/) worth of data.

We are now offering the same high-quality service in Austria, covering the entire DACH region (Deutschland, Austria and Switzerland) with a reliable solution close to our customers, while other players choose a less local approach:
it is not so long ago that [Microsoft put an end to the deal with Deutsche Telekom](https://nextcloud.com/blog/microsoft-and-telekom-no-longer-offer-cloud-storage-under-german-jurisdiction/), which was providing Microsoft cloud services under strict German jurisdiction.

Completely European owned, in partnership with [A1 Digital](https://www.a1.digital), Exoscale provides a full GDPR compliant offer, with self service DPA and full transparency. 

### Simple pricing without surprises

We think that having a simple way to estimate the costs of your infrastructure is important, allowing you to focus on your product and not your budget. Our Object Storage service is **available in every region at € 0.0180/month/GB, with no cost per request or upload, and a flat rate per transferred GB/out of € 0.0182.**

No need to estimate pricing tiers, regional differences, or number of requests: a true simple Object Storage with great cost savings and uncompromising performance.
