Server-Side Encryption
You request Amazon S3 to encrypt your object before saving it on disks in its data centers and decrypt it when you download the objects
Client-Side Encryption
You can encrypt data client-side and upload the encrypted data to Amazon S3. In this case, you manage the encryption process, the encryption keys, and related tools.

- Client-Side Encryption with AWS KMS–Managed Customer Master Key (CMK)
- Client-Side Encryption Using a Client-Side Master Key
CloudFront Origin Access Identity

Glacier Provisioned Capacity
> ensures that your retrieval capacity for expedited retrievals is available when you need it.
Each unit of capacity provides that at least three expedited retrievals can be performed every five minutes and provides up to 150 MB/s of retrieval throughput.
Why purchase Glacier Provisioned Capacity
You should purchase provisioned retrieval capacity if your workload requires highly reliable and predictable access to a subset of your data in minutes
Ranged Archive Retrievals
retrieve an archive from Glacier, you can optionally specify a range, or portion, of the archive to retrieve:
> Manage your data downloads
> Retrieve a targeted part of a large archive
