Creation of a knowledge life cycle in S3 Uploading files to S3 is straightforward, actually, too. So it's important to regulate the life cycle of the stored data, also because of the use that's given thereto. it's possible that the info you upload to S3 is for sporadic queries, or not even ... maybe some data that you simply store during this environment is merely for security, and therefore the idea isn't to possess to resort thereto. So why have them in S3 without more, once we could have them in S3 IA (infrequent access) or directly in Glacier, with the resultant cost reduction? Even after a particular time, it's going to not be necessary to stay these data, and that we may delete them.

We can manage all this with a lifecycle in S3. to try to to this, we attend the bucket that we would like to manage and enter it. we'll see 4 main tabs: Overview, Properties, Permissions, and Management. Well, we click on the latter.

There is an outsized number of options, like configuring usage metrics, analysis, inventory, file or bucket replication, and therefore the one that interests us, Lifecycle.

You can not check anything, but this window allows you to define if you're only getting to apply the rule to the present object, or if it's to be applied also, or only, to previous versions of the stored file. And for this, logically, you want to have activated the file versioning option. If not, you'll only make transitions for "current versions". In my case, additionally, the files will go on to Glacier (transition to Amazon Glacier after), since they're going to not be touched normally, and that I am curious about reducing storage costs (they are going to be heavy files). The minimum time to maneuver the files to Glacier is 1 day. they can't be archived immediately in Glacier, they need to always undergo S3 first.

Important: S3 doesn't deduplicate data, so versioning geometrically increases the quantity of stored data, so if the files to be saved are very heavy, versioning isn't recommended.

In Configure expiration, you'll indicate if it's just for the present file version, or for previous versions (and we return to the importance of versioning). The expire current version of the object is that the date the file is going to be deleted from AWS. Just just in case, I also check the choice "clean up incomplete multipart uploads, just in case a file has been left half upload, and through the indicated period of your time, it's not finished its task. during this case, I even have set 7 day ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luXTf3uCLpg
