Key Takeaways

  • β€’S3 is object storage with infinitely scaling capacity, storing files in globally unique buckets
  • β€’Objects have keys (full path), can be up to 5TB, and consist of metadata, tags, and version IDs
  • β€’Versioning protects against unintended deletes and enables easy rollback to previous versions
  • β€’Replication (CRR/SRR) copies objects between buckets asynchronously for compliance or lower latency
  • β€’Storage classes optimize costs: Standard for frequent access, IA for infrequent, Glacier for archival
