Storage Classes

Object Storage Classes

Definition

Storage classes tier object storage into different price-performance levels based on access frequency. S3 Standard suits frequently accessed data; S3 Infrequent Access and Glacier Instant Retrieval reduce costs for less-accessed data; Glacier Flexible Retrieval and Deep Archive provide the lowest-cost archival storage with retrieval times from minutes to hours.

Lifecycle policies automate transitions between classes.
