By Amazon cloud, I am guessing you mean S3.

With BountySite, you can subscribe for any plan and add Backup Sync. The process is automated post every change in backup.
You need to provide with key and secret for uploading backup data. The data is password protected zip, with whole history of the site.

You can download by logging into EC2 portal -> S3 and download directly. Note, download data costs 0.10$ per GB, with S3.


In WHM - there is an option to upload data to S3. The process of restore is manual.

Where it will create this? on your site or on Amazon s3?

Where you get this information? this price is very high, if I download 100GB, it costs me $10 :(

Is there a tutorial for configuring this? I saw this option in my WHM too but not sure how to do more.

I don't get this info in their prices here https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/?nc=sn&loc=4
Information are available in the section Data transfer pricing (in the link you posted)

I may need to buy one to try for my websites and check how it works.

What about Google cloud storage https://cloud.google.com/storage/?

How can it compare with Amazon s3?
Like almost all object storage offers, it's pretty similar to AWS S3, you will be billed for storage, transfers and operations.
