Notes	The Russian free lane is thin and shrinking: Yandex withdrew its grant, Selectel states in its own FAQ that cloud servers have no free test, Timeweb Cloud has no fixed-length trial, and cloud.ru's RUB 4,000 is the largest general-purpose entry found. VK Cloud's RUB 2,000,000 startup grant needs a legal entity and is a discount schedule rather than credit. Corrected 2026-10-22: the campaign rules approved on 2026-06-30 require the account to be registered in the Russian Federation, and the 2 vCPU / 4 GiB free VM is closed to accounts registered after 2026-06-30. What survives is 25 vCPU-hours a month of Container Apps and the object-storage egress allowance.

Price	$14.07/TB/mo at both 5 TB and 20 TB (₽1.1346/GiB × 1024 × 0.012111), storage only, egress unpriced/unknown. If egress turns out metered at the Selectel-like ₽1.96/GB this becomes $38/TB/mo total and fails; the figure above is storage-only.
Per-object cap	not stated
Retention	not stated
Egress	Not stated in the tariff fragment that was retrievable (the document's traffic annex was truncated at the point of reading). A prior wave (A-A4) recorded Evolution Object Storage's free tier as «первые не тарифицируются» for a small monthly allowance and marked the paid service as metered. Treat egress as UNVERIFIED — do not assume free.

Composes with	Per-GB, so 5 TB and 20 TB share the rate.
Reliability	Cloud.ru is the rebranded SberCloud and is the largest non-hyperscaler Russian cloud; the technical reliability is not in question. The commercial blocker is that tariff documents are PDFs behind a Russian-language portal, prices are VAT-inclusive for Russian entities, and the egress annex could not be read — so the total cost of ownership is unknown even though the storage line is the cheapest Russian object rate found.
