Explanation
Amazon S3 Lifecycle rules are the native and most efficient way to enforce data retention policies. AWS Certified Security - Specialty documentation recommends lifecycle rules over custom automation to reduce operational complexity and failure risk. Lifecycle rules automatically and reliably delete objects after a specified age, ensuring compliance without additional compute services. Lambda-based solutions increase cost and management overhead. Intelligent-Tiering manages storage cost, not data deletion.
