Summary

Add lifecycle support for storing data into S3, enabling tiered/archival storage of BanyanDB data.

Task Requirements

  1. Research — survey potential solutions (S3 storage backends, lifecycle policies, integration approaches with BanyanDB's existing storage model).
  2. PoC — implement a proof-of-concept for the chosen approach.
  3. Benchmark — run benchmarks (write/read latency, throughput, cost) before finalizing the design.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Research document comparing candidate solutions.
  • Working PoC.
  • Benchmark results.
  • Final design proposal based on PoC + bench findings.
