Akamai Linode Object Storage migrations,
without scripts.
Mover is the data-migration tool from Files.com. One-time moves between 20+ providers — no subscriptions, no surprises, no scripts.
Migrate data to or from Akamai Linode Object Storage with Mover. S3-compatible object storage from the Linode platform, priced for developers and integrated with Akamai's global network.
LinodeThe developer-cloud move
Why Linode migrations happen
Most inbound migrations come with the rest of a Linode stack — a developer team that picked Linode for compute and wants the storage next to it. Outbound moves are usually multi-cloud rebalances. We've executed hundreds of Linode migrations; the patterns are remarkably consistent.
Match your storage to your Linode compute
If your application already runs on Linode Compute Instances or Linode Kubernetes Engine, putting the data next to the compute keeps latency low and eliminates cross-cloud egress on every read.
Predictable, developer-friendly pricing
Linode Object Storage lists at around $5/TB/month with a transfer allowance included. No enterprise sales cycle to learn the price, no surprise tier resets.
Regional reach through Akamai
Linode Object Storage is available in multiple regions globally (Atlanta, Chicago, Newark, Frankfurt, Stockholm, Jakarta, Mumbai, Osaka, Seoul, Sydney, and others). The Akamai acquisition expanded the geographic footprint further.
S3-compatible API
Linode speaks the S3 API. Existing applications, SDKs, backup tools, and infrastructure-as-code keep working with a credential swap and an endpoint URL change.
Multi-cloud rebalance to a hyperscaler
Moving primary storage to S3, Azure Blob, or GCS to align with specific compute, analytics, or compliance requirements Linode doesn't target.
Cross-region or cross-account reorg
Splitting buckets across Linode regions or accounts as the team's needs evolve.
Common pairings
Pair Linode with any cloud.
Linode migrations rarely happen in isolation. These are the providers we pair with most often — one-click setup on either side, same dry-run flow, same audit trail.
Connection
How Mover connects.
Mover connects to Akamai the standard way. Provide the credential, nothing more — generate a scoped token if you want minimum-privilege.
Linode access key + secret + endpoint URL
The standard method. Generate access keys in the Linode Cloud Manager; Mover uses them as an S3 access key + secret pair. You also provide the regional endpoint URL — for example, `us-east-1.linodeobjects.com` for the Newark region.
Egress Savings
See your twelve-month savings.
Move from a paid-egress provider to one with free egress and your monthly invoice shrinks. Plug in your data size and how much you read from storage each month — the calculator does the rest, including the one-time Mover migration cost.

Numbers use published standard-tier rates from each provider as of May 2026. Actual invoice varies by region, committed-use discounts, and your specific contract. Mover migration cost uses the cheapest combination of prepaid usage packs that covers the data size — packs stack, so a 2 TB migration is two 1 TB packs, not one 5 TB pack. The dry run prices the migration against your actual data and shows the exact one-time Mover cost before you commit.
Getting started
4 steps to Go.
From credential to first byte in four clicks. The dry-run is free, every time, and shows the exact cost before you commit a byte.
Connect Linode.
Paste an access key, secret, and regional endpoint URL from the Linode Cloud Manager. Mover validates the credential and lists buckets it can see.
Choose source and destination buckets.
Apply filters and a date range if you want a partial migration.
Run a dry-run.
Mover walks the source bucket, counts files, sizes the transfer, and produces an exact cost estimate.
Launch.
Live progress, automatic retries on transient failures. Pause, resume, or cancel at any time.
Common Questions
Frequently asked.
Most teams launch their first migration in under 15 minutes. The dry run is free, every time.
Yes. Akamai acquired Linode in 2022 and rebranded the platform as Akamai Cloud. The product is now sometimes referred to as Akamai Cloud Object Storage, but the API, endpoints, and pricing model are the same Linode Object Storage you may already know.
