  Differences In Retention ●Regular Retention - It works but it contains at least 2 full backups, which consumes about half of the storage usage. ● Forever Forward Incremental (FFI) - Great way to save on storage for short and mid-term retention up to 6 months. FFI always stores only 1 FULL in the storage bucket. ● Grandfather Father Son (GFS) - Another great way to save on storage for long term archival data. Immutability/Object Lock is also available as a feature in this retention policy. Store individual FULL backups with additional retention without extra incrementals.
