AWS S3 Glacier is the same $0.004/GB/month and requires the same minimum of 90 days, but retrieval takes "from 1 minute to 12 hours". They also have large retrieval costs (on top of the regular egress to the internet) and API call charges.

AWS S3 Deep glacier is only $0.00099/GB/month, but requires it to be stored 180 days and also have operation/retrieval fees. "For long-term data archiving that is accessed once or twice in a year and can be restored within 12 hours"

We feel like the immediate availability of our offering is compelling and a competitive advantage over glacier.
