AWS S3 Intelligent-Tiering?

[ameusel]

Morning,

I am interesting in enabling Intelligent-Tiering on the AWS S3 bucket that my immutable backups are stored in,

I don't see any references to this in the official documentation, good or bad, does anyone have any experience with using this feature?

Here's the reference in the official documentation > General Considerations and Limitations

Data in an object storage bucket or container must be managed solely by Veeam Backup & Replication, including retention (in case you enable Object Lock and Versioning features on an S3 bucket or version-level WORM on an Azure container) and data management. Enabling lifecycle rules is not supported, and may result in backup and restore failures.

Thanks for the response Gostev, your implying that Intelligent-Tiering in this case is considered a lifecycle policy?

[Gostev]

Yes. @veremin please confirm we don't support "AWS S3 Intelligent Tiering"?

[veremin]

Correct, we do not support the Intelligent Tiering storage class in our user interface. Furthermore, it is not supported to assign this storage class to already created backup objects via lifecycle policies. Thanks!
