Have you tried S3 with auto tiered storage?
Only the most recent stuff lives on fast media, the older stuff gets auto migrated to media that has much better cost/byte ratios, including all the way to Deep Glacier storage if that’s what you want.
I would be very curious to see what the TCO is of a well-configured Backblaze B2 storage solution is, compared to a well-configured S3 auto-tier solution. And then also compare relative performance, too.
