-Veeam supports multiple Amazon S3 storage classes to best fit your specific needs. You can choose the type of storage based on the data access, resiliency, and cost requirements of your backup or archive data. For example, you can store data that you don’t plan to use for 30 days or longer in Amazon S3 infrequent access (IA) for lower cost. If you’re planning to archive data for 90 days or longer, you can use Amazon Simple Storage Service Glacier (Amazon S3 Glacier) Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive with Veeam’s archive tier. You can also use S3 Object Lock to make backups that are immutable within Amazon S3.

-Starting with Veeam Backup & Replication v12.2, the Direct to S3 Glacier feature makes the S3 capacity tier optional. A SOBR can be configured with a performance tier and a S3 Glacier archive tier. This configuration is useful for users who have significant investments in local (on-premises) storage for the capacity tier and who require only long-term archive retention in the cloud.
