Curious, did you go through the math of figuring out how much the initial file transfer and ongoing cost will set you back (not a lot from the sounds of it). Should be way to do, but I’ve just not found the time yet to do that for a backup I’m intending to send to S3 as well
- telgareith 2y agoYes- AWS calculator: 1) S3- cost for how much you're storing in glacier and then the cost for its metadata to he in a S3 hot/warm tier. 2) Glacier retrieval cost- can be minimized by letting AWS pull it on their schedule. 3) BANDWIDTH- this is the vast majority of the cost at $0.09/GB. There may be ways to lower this, but I haven't tried them. I'm not saying its a bad deal, I very much wish I'd gone with deep archive (especially with the recent addition of "update if different" to the API)
