Amazon S3 Storage… which options is needed for WP eStore?

[elsassupport]

On the website of Amazon, they tell me that there are diffent options for storing WP eStore downloadable files:

Amazon S3 offers a range of storage classes designed for different use cases. These include S3 Standard for general-purpose storage of frequently accessed data; S3 Intelligent-Tiering for data with unknown or changing access patterns; S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) and S3 One Zone-Infrequent Access (S3 One Zone-IA) for long-lived, but less frequently accessed data; and Amazon S3 Glacier (S3 Glacier) and Amazon S3 Glacier Deep Archive (S3 Glacier Deep Archive) for long-term archive and digital preservation.

Until today, I only use S3 Standard for my download store.
I suppose that the other options can be cheaper.
Is S3 Standard necessary for this purpose, or can other options also be used?

Amazon S3 standard is necessary for WP eStore. That allows you to sell a download that will be available to the customers as soon as they buy the item.

Using Amazon S3 “Standard” offloads the processing burden of transferring a download; from your server (the one running eStore), to the much faster Amazon cloud service (the same one Netflix and Prime Video uses).
