It is important to be careful with how you try to use Glacier. I have been looking its pricing; It costs $0.01 per GB per month only if you want to upload your data.
Downloads add significant cost if you want to retrieve more than 0.17% of your data in a day.
Downloading 5% of your data increases your monthly rate to $0.097 per GB.
10% increases to $0.187 per GB
50% increases to $0.907 per GB
100% increases to $1.807 per GB
Downloads are also delayed by 4 hours after you make a request.
- PStamatiou 13y agoif I have 2TB stored and only want to retrieve a single 10GB photo shoot one month (or even just a single photo), it would not be anywhere close to 5% (.5% in fact) of my total amount stored. The key point here is that we are dealing with TBs of photos that are there for safe-keeping and they have already been tinkered with and all photo JPGs needed have been exported and put elsewhere. This is just for RAWs and you likely won't need to access them again, definitely not 5%+ of them like this.
