A data science team requires storage for nightly log processing.

For logs that are:

Written and processed within a short period (24 hours)

Accessed quickly for compute/analytics

With unknown object count and size

Amazon S3 Standard is the most appropriate and cost-effective. Intelligent-Tiering is designed for data stored for longer periods (typically 30+ days) with changing access patterns and charges a per-object monitoring and automation fee that becomes inefficient for very short-lived objects.

S3 Glacier Deep Archive and S3 One Zone-IA are optimized for long-term archival or infrequently accessed data with retrieval time or availability constraints that are not suitable for nightly active processing.
