/**
*
* Amazon Glacier is a storage solution for "cold data."
*
*
* Amazon Glacier is an extremely low-cost storage service that provides secure, durable, and easy-to-use storage for
* data backup and archival. With Amazon Glacier, customers can store their data cost effectively for months, years, or
* decades. Amazon Glacier also enables customers to offload the administrative burdens of operating and scaling storage
* to AWS, so they don't have to worry about capacity planning, hardware provisioning, data replication, hardware
* failure and recovery, or time-consuming hardware migrations.
*
*
* Amazon Glacier is a great storage choice when low storage cost is paramount, your data is rarely retrieved, and
* retrieval latency of several hours is acceptable. If your application requires fast or frequent access to your data,
* consider using Amazon S3. For more information, see Amazon Simple Storage Service
* (Amazon S3).
*
*
* You can store any kind of data in any format. There is no maximum limit on the total amount of data you can store in
* Amazon Glacier.
*
*
* If you are a first-time user of Amazon Glacier, we recommend that you begin by reading the following sections in the
* Amazon Glacier Developer Guide:
*
*
* -
*
* What is Amazon Glacier - This
* section of the Developer Guide describes the underlying data model, the operations it supports, and the AWS SDKs that
* you can use to interact with the service.
*
*
* -
*
* Getting Started
* with Amazon Glacier - The Getting Started section walks you through the process of creating a vault, uploading
* archives, creating jobs to download archives, retrieving the job output, and deleting archives.
