Which Amazon S3 storage class should you choose for data that is infrequently accessed but requires rapid access when needed, and you also want to minimize cost?
S3 Standard-IA
S3 Standard
S3 Glacier
S3 Intelligent-Tiering
Amazon S3 Standard-IA (Infrequent Access) is designed for data that is not frequently accessed but requires rapid access when needed. It balances storage cost and retrieval speed by offering lower storage costs compared to S3 Standard and slightly higher retrieval costs. S3 Glacier is cost-effective for archival data with varying restoration times, often requiring hours to retrieve data. S3 Intelligent-Tiering automatically moves data between two access tiers when usage patterns change, which is suitable for data with changing or unpredictable access patterns but isn't optimal for primarily infrequent access data. S3 One Zone-IA can be used for infrequently accessed data but places it in a single availability zone, offering less durability compared to other options.
