Except for the Glacier retrieval fees which can be insane if you choose to retrieve more than 0.17% of your stored data per day. https://aws.amazon.com/glacier

- t0mas88 12y agoBut if you retrieve the same 1000 GB from Glacier in the same 3 days that Google takes you would pay a 98 dollar retrieval fee. And Amazon would charge 300 dollar less traffic cost ($ 0.09 vs $ 0.12 / GB for 1000 GB) so in the end Glacier is still 202 dollar cheaper AND allows you to retrieve the data much faster if you really have to at a certain price. So Google looks cheaper/simpler, but the amazon model is actually quite good for disaster recovery where you may be in a situation where you "need it now at any cost"
