• Archiving tapes – When your backup software ejects a tape, your gateway moves the tape to the archive for long-term storage. The archive is located in the AWS Region in which you activated the gateway. Tapes in the archive are stored in the virtual tape shelf (VTS). The VTS is backed by S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive, low-cost storage service for data archiving, backup, and long-term data retention.
