Answer Description

The Archive tier is designed for data that is rarely or never accessed and offers the lowest storage costs among the tiers. Retrieval from the Archive tier can take several hours, which aligns with the organization's requirements. The Cool tier is intended for infrequently accessed data that requires quicker access times and has higher storage costs than Archive. The Hot tier is optimized for frequently accessed data and has the highest storage costs. The Premium tier is designed for performance-sensitive data with low latency needs and is more expensive. Therefore, the Archive tier is the most suitable choice to minimize storage costs for data that does not require immediate retrieval.
