Add support for S3 Infrequent Access #501
Description
Hi guys, I think it would be great if tklbam+hub support S3 Standard IA because it is almost the same as S3 Standard but cheaper (50% less per GB).
This type of storage would be particularly useful to store full backups (because minimum period for billing is 30 days). I think Regular incremental backups should stay in Standard S3 because its retention period in general is shorter than 30 days.
I saw ticket #208 asking the same for Glacier, but perhaps this could be more simple for users because restore price is always fixed (0.01USD/GB) and because data is instantly available. Please note this is what I understood from reading S3 pages, but I never tried this service, I always use S3 behind the HUB.
Prices for Standard – IA start at $0.0125 / gigabyte / month (one and one-quarter US pennies), with a 30 day minimum storage duration for billing, and a $0.01 / gigabyte charge for retrieval (in addition to the usual data transfer and request charges). Further, for billing purposes, objects that are smaller than 128 kilobytes are charged for 128 kilobytes of storage.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
