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
