- AWS Glacier basic elements are vaults and archives. Each vault contain one or more archives. Each archive has a description, size and creation date.
-
Each glacier archive correspond to one zip or tar file.
-
Each archive should contain a snapshot of backup folder (a map of file-hash to a list of paths).
-
Each vault should contain one full backup archive and one or more incremental backup archives.
-
The full backup archive should always be the first one in the vault.
