Script Usage
# Test (small batch)
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --batch-size 100 --max-batches 1
# Full transfer
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --batch-size 50000 --concurrency 30
# Resume after interruption
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --resume
# Dry run (count only)
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --dry-run
AWS Setup
- Bucket:
s3://pollinations-archive - Region: us-east-1
- Storage Class: DEEP_ARCHIVE
Verify Archives
aws s3 ls s3://pollinations-archive/ --recursive --human-readable | head -20
Important Notes
- β οΈ 180-day minimum on Glacier Deep Archive - don't delete R2 until verified!
- Some objects fail with "Header overflow" (very large responses) - acceptable loss
- Text bucket (1.86B objects) takes several days
- R2 egress is free, AWS ingress is free
