Back to the basics: Getting started with Amazon S3
summary
Amazon S3 stores objects across at least three availability zones and claims 11 nines durability while regional storage waits for cross‑AZ writes before returning success. Storage classes include S3 Standard, S3 Standard‑IA, S3 One Zone‑IA (≈20% cheaper), and archives Glacier and Glacier Deep Archive ~$1/TB. S3 Intelligent‑Tiering auto‑moves after 30/60/90 days with async restores in hours and no retrieval fees (plus a small monitoring fee). Replication options include same‑region, cross‑region, and RTC which aims to replicate 99.99% of objects within 15 minutes.
