If you delete 1 GB after 2 months, you will be charged for 1 month of Amazon Glacier storage." If you delete 1GB of data 1 month after uploading it, you will be charged an early deletion fee for 2 months of Amazon Glacier storage. If an object archived in Amazon Glacier is deleted or overwritten within three months of being archived then there will be an early deletion fee. Deleting data that is archived to Amazon Glacier is free if the objects being deleted have been archived in Amazon Glacier for three months or longer. "Amazon Glacier is designed for use cases where data is retained for months, years, or decades. Would the early deletion fees be greater in my case than the additional storage cost? Are there any settings in Veeam Cloud Edition to help manage the retention to help in this situation? Specifically, could I configure Veeam to Not delete any data younger than three months AND would Amazon's policy then not charge for early deletions? Specifically, when the changes are applied to the full backup file, are those "changes" seen as deletions of the old data? If anyone has any experience on managing this I would be very appreciative! Also, has anyone had experiences with any of the other providers that Veeam supports in terms of pricing? (I am thinking that the reverse incremental job would cause the least amount of data that is considered "deleted" but please correct me if I am wrong).Ĭan anyone shed some light on how Amazon will charge for these jobs in terms of early deletion of data? If there will be penalties on the deleted or overwritten data as the Veeam jobs run, would I come out ahead by storing the data for three months just to avoid the penalty? In other words, I would be storing more data total because I would be retaining it for longer. I would likely want to do a reverse-incremental job to Glacier at least once a week but perhaps every night if bandwidth, etc permits. I have pasted Amazon's official policy on early deletions below. I am not yet clear on how Amazon's policy on deleting objects younger than 3 months will affect my fees. They are all going to backup locally so I am interested in Glacier only if the building burns down, etc. I want to estimate the Glacier costs for my clients that will have 200GB to 1000GB's of data. Im interested and would be very greatfull if anyone could share any experience or information that may clear it up for me Has anyone used Veeam Cloud with Amazon Glacier to measure the costs yet? My concern is how Veeam manages the Amazon Glacier files/archives with an offsite backup policy like ours, deleting VBK or VIM files less than 3 months old would incur additional costs.Īnd does Veeam download any data from Amazon Glacier before the backup job starts, which may incur additional costs? I understand Glacier costs maybe high for retrieval, but we would only need to retrieve data if the building collapsed, Veeam B&R is also used replicate/backup to DR hosts and NAS boxes on same site. Our storage requirement is tiny compared to some of the pricing examples, which are quite hard to follow. We need to backup offsite every night, and keep up to 10 restore points. The SMB does not have offsite storage, and would like to have it, my SME use LT04 tape rotation, when compared to Veeam cloud approx £400 per year cheaper to run (excluding cloud service charges) I look after 2 companies, 1 SMB total VM size 300GB, veeam backup files are 120GBĪnd 1 SME total VM sizes 3TB, using replication not backup so I have yet be determined backup file size. I read that Amazon Glacier is the cheapest, but I read on some forums and blogs about soaring retrieval costs. I am about to trial Veeam Cloud Edition, and selecting which Cloud provider.
