Yev here -> thanks! We're constantly working on making the platform better, and copy-file was definitely a widely requested feature! That plus S3 Compatibility, for folks who wanted to integrated with B2 Cloud Storage but didn't have the resources to write code to our B2 Native API.

I've been using B2 to disrupt a bunch of ugly & entrenched vendors in the price sensitive K12 market. Thanks for building it. :)

Can you share what you do with B2? (Are you hosting educational content? Something else?)

Ah that's awesome! I'd love to more know! How are you using B2 in general, and does this make it easier for you? If you want to leave a note here, or you can send it to: b2feedback@backblaze.com!

are there any plans to host public datasets like aws pds ?

I just finished writing a new feature for internal use using S3. I hadn't even considered Backblaze at the time, but now that I am seeing this news we may end up using it, considering there is virtually no cost (to switch) and we haven't deployed yet.
