Archive storage is the most cost effective for archive data

https://www.oracle.com/cloud/storage/archive-storage.html

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure offers two distinct storage class tiers to address the need for both performant, frequently accessed 'hot' storage, and less frequently accessed 'cold' storage. Storage tiers help you maximize performance where appropriate and minimize costs where possible.

1) UseArchive Storagefor data to which you seldom or rarely access, but that must be retained and preserved for long periods of time. The cost efficiency of the Archive Storage offsets the long lead time required to access the data.

2) UseObject Storagefor data to which you need fast, immediate, and frequent access. Data accessibility and performance justifies a higher price to store data in the Object Storage. For more information, seeOverview of Object Storage.
