Unlike other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/blog\/amazon-s3-storage-classes-guide\/\">S3 storage classes<\/a>, which store data in at least three availability zones, Z\u2014IA stores data in a single availability zone. In other words, there is no data <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/blog\/deduplication-meaning-approaches-tips\/\">deduplication<\/a> within the same region, and your data is not resilient in the event of data center destruction. However, reduced durability is balanced out by lower pricing; Z-IA is priced at $0.01 per GB-month, a 20% discount compared to regular Standard-IA ($0.0125 per GB-month).<br \/>\nMSP360 Explorer has consequently been updated with complete support for Z-IA. The implemented functionality includes the ability to change files\u2019 storage class and configure buckets' lifecycle policy. We imagine that users will be interested in offloading some of their backup data from Standard-IA to Z-IA to reduce storage expenses by 20%.<\/p>\n<h2>Support for S3 Osaka-Local Region<\/h2>\n<p>Another new feature in release 5.6 is the support for Amazon\u2019s latest S3 region \u2014 Osaka-Local. Unlike other S3 regions, access to Osaka-Local is limited to Japanese customers and has to be requested from Amazon\u2019s sales representatives. Once you have access to the region, CloudBerry Explorer will be able to list, download, and upload files located in the region as well as create new buckets.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"further-reading \">Further reading<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/blog\/how-to-improve-amazon-s3-data-protection-using-cross-region-replication\/\">How to Improve Amazon S3 Data Protection Using Cross-Region Replication<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CloudBerry Explorer, Amazon S3 browser for Windows, has been updated with support for Amazon\u2019s new Osaka-Local region and their new storage class \u2014 One Zone-Infrequent Access.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":69,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[877,898,882],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21150","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog-articles","category-msp360-explorer","category-msp360-news"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21150","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/69"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21150"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21150\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":60657,"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21150\/revisions\/60657"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21150"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21150"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
