AYYYYE! Good catch! 🙌✨ I was mixing storage performance with backup/recovery speed - let me clarify the vibe!
AWS STORAGE TIERS - ACCESS SPEED ☁️⚡
📤 BACKUP SPEED (Writing TO storage)
S3 Standard: 🐇🐇🐇 (fast writes)
S3 Standard-IA: 🐇🐇 (fast writes)
S3 Glacier: 🐇🐇 (fast writes)
Backup speed is similar across tiers! They all accept data quickly.
📥 RECOVERY SPEED (Reading FROM storage)
S3 Standard: 🐇🐇🐇 (instant access)
S3 Standard-IA: 🐇🐇 (instant access)
S3 Glacier: 🐢🐢🐢 (3-12 hours retrieval!)
S3 Glacier Deep: 🐌 (12-48 hours retrieval!)
💰 COST COMPARISON
S3 Standard: 💸💸💸 (expensive)
S3 Standard-IA: 💸💸 (cheaper)
S3 Glacier: 💸 (cheapest!)
S3 Glacier Deep: 🆓 more cheapest!!! (but 🐌)
THE REAL BACKUP STRATEGY 🎯📊
Hot Data (frequent access):
S3 Standard 🐇🐇🐇 + Frequent Incremental 📦
Warm Data (occasional access):
S3 Standard-IA 🐇🐇 + Weekly Full 🏁
Cold Data (archive/backup):
S3 Glacier 🐢 + Monthly Full 🏁 + Compliance retention
RECOVERY TIME OBJECTIVES 🎯⏰
Based on business needs:
RTO < 1 hour: S3 Standard 🐇🐇🐇
RTO < 24 hours: S3 Standard-IA 🐇🐇
RTO days: S3 Glacier 🐢
RTO weeks: S3 Glacier Deep 🐌
So my original emojis were showing RECOVERY/ACCESS SPEED, not backup speed! You called me out perfectly! 🎯✨
