Can someone explain what happened in the end? From my understanding nothing happened (they deprioritizod the story for fixing it) and they are still blowing through the cloud budget.
Your website renders as a big empty blue page in Firefox unless I disable tracking protection (and in my case, since I have noscript, I have to enable javascript for "website-files.com", a domain that sounds totally legit).
A lot of sites like to do things like this for some reason. I haven't figured out why. I like to use Stylus to mitigate these if I can, rather than enabling JavaScript.
I have caused billing spikes like this before those little warnings were invented and it was always a dark day. They are really a life saver. Lifecycle rules are also welcome. Writing them yourself was always a pain and tended to be expensive with list operations eating up that api calls bill. ---- Once I supported an app that dumped small objects into s3 and begged the dev team to store the small objects in oracle a…
This hits home so hard that it hurts. In my case is not S3 but compute bills but the core concept is the same.
TL-DR: Object stores are not databases. Don't treat them like one.
Try telling that to developers; they love using S3 as both a database and a filesystem. It's gotten to the point where we need a training for new devs to tell them what not to do in the cloud.
sigh . My team is facing all these issues. Drowning in data. Crazy S3 bill spikes. And not just S3 - Azure, GCP, Alibaba, etc since we are a multi-cloud product. Earlier, we couldn't even figure out lifecycle policies to expire objects since naturally every PM had a different opinion on the data lifecycle. So it was old-fashioned cleanup jobs that were scheduled and triggered when a byzantine set of conditions were m…

Off topic: for people with a "million billion" objects, does the S3 console just completely freeze up for you? I have some large buckets that I'm unable to even interact with via the GUI. I've always wondered if my account is in some weird state or if performance is that bad for everyone. (This is a bucket with maybe 500 million objects, under a hundred terabytes)

The problem is that the DIV that contains the main text has the attribute 'style="opacity:0"'. Presumably, this is something that the JavaScript turns off.

We did an analysis of S3 storage levels by profiling 25,000 random S3 buckets a while back for a comparison of Amazon S3 and R2* and nearly 70% of storage in S3 was StandardStorage which just seems crazy high to me.
