Define Difference of Glacier vs. Amazon S3, - Reason Why User Should Choose Amazon Glacier?

Difference: Glacier vs. Amazon S3 Amazon Glacier provides durable storage for any type of data format that will be accessed in three to five hours. A developer could use Amazon Glacier in conjunction with storage lifecycle management, rotating rarely used data to cold storage to save money. Glacier differs from Amazon's more expensive Simple Storage Service (S3) in that S3 is designed for data that needs to be retrieved in real-time. An enterprise turns to Amazon S3 for object storage with low latency. S3 is a better fit than AWS' Glacier storage for an enterprise that requires regular or immediate access to data. Amazon S3 is a durable, secure, simple, and fast storage service, while Amazon S3 Glacier is used for archiving solutions. Use S3 if you need low latency or frequent access to your data. Use S3 Glacier for low storage cost, and you do not require millisecond access to your data. You have three retrieval options when it comes to Glacier, each varyi...

What Is AWS S3 Glacier? Benefits of Glacier

Amazon S3 Glacier is a secure, durable, and extremely low-cost Amazon S3 storage class for data archiving and long-term backup. With S3 Glacier, customers can store their data cost effectively for months, years, or even decades. S3 Glacier enables customers to offload the administrative burdens of operating and scaling storage to AWS, so they don't have to worry about capacity planning, hardware provisioning, data replication, hardware failure detection and recovery, or time-consuming hardware migrations. A developer uses a cold data cloud service such as Amazon Glacier to move infrequently accessed data to archival storage to save money on storage costs. He can also move database backups from tape storage media to the cloud for long-term Glacier storage. Amazon Glacier helps to protect the data by redundantly storing it on multiple devices using multiple facilities. AWS Glacier has a Data Integrity Check which regularly monitors the data in the Glacier. It also provides secur...

Explain the FIVE pillars of AWS framework

Do You Know About AWS Pillars? Creating a software system is a lot like constructing a building. If the foundation is not solid structural problems can undermine the integrity and function of the building. When architect technology solutions, if you neglect the five pillars of operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimization it can become challenging to build a system that delivers on your expectations and requirements. Incorporating these pillars into your architecture will help you produce stable and efficient systems. This will allow you to focus on the other aspects of design, such as functional requirements. Below are the Five Pillars: Operational Excellence Security Reliability Performance Efficiency Cost Optimization The Five Pillars of AWS Well-Architect Framework Operational Excellence : It was introduced to encourage cloud architects to continually re-evaluate their existing environments and the processes around...
