Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Instead use the hot access tier.
The hot access tier has higher storage costs than cool and archive tiers, but the lowest access costs. Example usage scenarios for the hot access tier include:
✑ Data that's in active use or expected to be accessed (read from and written to) frequently.
✑ Data that's staged for processing and eventual migration to the cool access tier.
