That's how they get people on Glacier storage. The storage is cheap as balls but the transfer can fuck you.

- jknoepfler 10y agoThe whole point is to service customers with massive storage needs who seldom need to retrieve the data. For example, many companies are compelled by regulation to archive records for decades, but only need to access data in response to lawsuits/etc. no one with frequent high volume retrieval needs would be advised to use glacier.
