Storage tier archive $0.50, but higher access and transaction costs.

Sentinel Log Analytics Data Archive - $0.04 per gb, but
Archived logs can also be restored to enable full interactive analytics query capabilities. Maintaining restored logs incurs a pro-rated cost per day and per GB based on the time the data is kept restored and the amount of data restored (subject to the minimal restore duration and data volume)

*If a restore is kept for less than 12 hours, the restore will be billed for a 12-hour minimum duration
