Public Access Control

• - Default deny public access—only open when explicitly needed (static hosting)
• Bucket policy vs IAM: bucket policy for cross-account/public, IAM for same-account roles
• Check both bucket-level AND account-level block settings—account can override bucket
• For web assets, prefer CDN in front of bucket over direct public access

Presigned URLs

• - Set shortest expiration practical—minutes for immediate use, not days
• URL is a bearer token—anyone with it has access; treat as secret
• Specify HTTP method in signature—GET for download, PUT for upload
• Include Content-Type for uploads—mismatch between signature and request causes 403
• Generate server-side, never expose credentials to client

Lifecycle Rules

• - Transition to cheaper tiers for infrequent access—but check minimum storage duration penalties
• Auto-delete for temp files, logs, old versions—prevents unbounded storage growth
• Clean incomplete multipart uploads—accumulate invisibly; set abort rule (7 days typical)
• Versioned buckets: separate rules for current vs noncurrent versions

Versioning Behavior

• - Enable before you need it—can't recover deleted objects without versioning
• "Delete" creates delete marker—object hidden but versions remain; storage still consumed
• Permanent deletion requires explicit version ID—without it, just adds marker
• Noncurrent version expiration essential—otherwise old versions accumulate forever

Multipart Uploads

• - Required above 5GB, recommended above 100MB—single PUT has size limits
• Incomplete uploads invisible in normal listings—consume storage silently
• Abort incomplete uploads via lifecycle—or manually with INLINECODE0
• Parallel part uploads for speed—parts can upload concurrently

CORS for Browser Access

• - Required for JavaScript direct upload/download—blocked without CORS headers
• Specify exact origins—avoid wildcard * for authenticated requests
• Expose headers that JavaScript needs to read—Content-Length, ETag, custom headers
• AllowedMethods: GET for download, PUT for upload, DELETE if needed

Key Naming

• - Use prefixes like directories: users/123/avatar.jpg—but S3 is flat, not hierarchical
• Avoid sequential prefixes for high throughput—2024-01-01/file1 can hotspot
• Random prefix or hash for write-heavy buckets—distributes across partitions
• No leading slash—/images/file.jpg creates empty-string prefix

Cost Awareness

• - Request volume matters—many small files more expensive than few large files
• Egress typically costly—CDN reduces egress by caching at edge
• Minimum storage duration varies by tier—early deletion still charged full period
• Lifecycle transitions have per-object cost—millions of tiny files expensive to transition

Replication

• - Cross-region for disaster recovery, same-region for compliance copies
• Versioning required on both source and destination
• Only new objects replicate—existing objects need manual copy or batch operation
• Delete markers not replicated by default—explicitly enable if needed

Provider Differences

• - AWS S3: full feature set, most tools assume AWS behavior
• Cloudflare R2: no egress fees, subset of features
• Backblaze B2: S3-compatible API, different pricing model
• MinIO: self-hosted, full S3 API compatibility
• Check presigned URL compatibility—some providers have quirks
