- TkTech 13y agoGlacier is for when you want to store essentially never-changing backups that you expect to very, very rarely access. You can store a couple GB or petabytes. Think an archive of family videos and photos spanning 30 years, or all the tax documents for a large enterprise.
- aroch 13y agoA 30GB backup, that's updated nightly, on AWS Glacier will cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $1 a month. A 300GB backup somewhere around $5 on AWS.
- ye 13y agoGlacier is cheaper for small backups that you almost never touch.
