10. • Manual
• Easy if you can program to S-3 API.
If not, will need commercial tools
• Tools
• Gateways
• Backup software
• Archive software
Getting Data To Coldline or Glacier
11. • Glacier address is different than S3 address
• Coldline address same as other levels
• Glacier two phase retrieval
• Completely different than typical S3 retrieval
• Request archive
• Amazon creates archive (3 hours)
• Download archive
• Coldline access same process as other tiers
Coldline vs. Glacier: Normal Operations
12. • Glacier Full Migration
• Full move, not accessible until done
• Pay for both during move
• Will get new address
• Coldline
• Virtual behind the scenes move
• Pay only for which tier you are accessing on
• Will get new address
