The primary cost factor for R2 is the amount of data stored (in GB). Other factors include data egress (data transferred out of R2), requests (GET, PUT, DELETE, etc.), and object lifecycle management actions (e.g., transitions to cheaper storage tiers). Understanding your data access patterns is crucial for cost optimization. Data transfer within the same region is typically free, while cross-region egress incurs charges.
