You’re not missing anything, it’s cheap. The ways in which you set/move objects between the storage tiers is interesting and may have some costs associated with it that you haven’t calculated, so check that out. I use s3 as a place to store encrypted offsite backups (even before I worked for AWS) and the biggest barrier was learning a different command line tool, the way to do authorization, and configuration of the software on the client. When I’ve pulled backups back down, there was a bit of “errrr how do I go and tell s3 to pull this object out of deep archive”, which was all user ignorance. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
