Cost Allocation Taggging overview

Cost Allocation Tagging is a new Amazon Glacier feature that allows you to track your Glacier costs on a Vault level.

Tags are labels that you can define and assign to your vaults. You can assign the same tag for one or multiple Vaults and use AWS Cost Allocation Reports tool to view a breakdown of costs and usage by tag.
