I built an open source self-hosted web application designed to make archiving to S3 Deep Archive simpler and more accessible. 1 0
/u/Madman200 have you tried using the 1TB monthly free egress that cloudfront offers to handle downloading the exports?
I've been experimenting with using Deep Archive myself, and I suspect that if I:
- Restore a Deep Archive object
- Copy that object to a new S3 bucket
- Set up a cloudfront distribution with an S3 origin
- Download the object through the Cloudfront distribution
the download would consume the "Always Free" 1TB bandwidth instead of being considered normal data egress.
I'm pretty sure 1TB out to a single IP address is an unintentional use, but Cloudfront + S3 looks like a normal CDN-type use to me.
I'm just waiting for a restore to complete before trying this and seeing what shows up on my AWS bill.
