This sync module leverages the versioning feature of the S3 objects in RGW to

The Archive Sync module uses the RGW versioning feature of S3 objects to
maintain an archive zone that captures successive versions of objects

only be removed through gateways associated with the archive zone.
An archive zone allows to have a history of versions of S3 objects that can
only be eliminated through the gateways associated with the archive zone.
This functionality is useful to have a configuration where several
