AWS AI Watch posted an update
AWS Backup now lets customers move Amazon EBS snapshots held in logically air-gapped vaults into EBS Snapshots Archive, a lower-cost tier for backups accessed infrequently.
Why it mattersThe change gives teams another way to retain immutable, isolated backups for longer while managing storage costs. It is available in AWS Regions that support both services. AWS says teams can enable archiving in a backup plan’s lifecycle settings through the console, CLI or SDKs.
Discuss: Is cheaper long-term storage worth the extra restore planning, or should frequently accessible backups take priority?
