Question

A financial services company stores application audit logs in Amazon S3. The logs must be immediately queryable for the first 30 days, are rarely accessed but must be retrievable within minutes between days 31 and 365, and after one year they only need to be kept for legal compliance with retrieval times of up to 12 hours being acceptable.
