Amazon S3 Reviews

I use the solution for the storage of images and documents.

The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that I mostly used the tool's free tier version, so I like the fact that its cost is very low.

Recently, I was trying to clean up the data because I have a lot of old, unused objects and images. I am trying to identify the files with the highest sizes and determine if I need to keep them or delete them. I didn't find the user interface very friendly. Beyond 399 or 999 objects, the tool's user interface was not allowing me to use the sort option. I had to use various keywords to search phrases and shortlist them so that I got less than 399 objects and could use the sort option. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement.

I have been using Amazon S3 for around three years. I think two years back, I was in a different organization, which was an AWS partner. I am a customer of the tool.

It is a stable solution.

The solution's technical support is satisfactory. I rate the technical support a nine out of ten.

Positive

In my previous job, I used Sagemaker, but I don't use it currently. I have also used Amazon EC2 and CloudWatch for billing alerts or something that I might have set them up in the company.

The product's deployment phase is quite comfortable with no issues. The tool's maintenance part is fairly easy.

I don't use it that frequently, so I think it's too early to comment on the tool's pricing structure. Six months later, I may have more data related to the tool.

I can't comment on the pricing part of the product since I don't deal with a high workload for now.

I use the tool's free tier. I believe that there is a need to make annual payments towards the licensing charges associated with the product.

Speaking of the process for retrieving data with the help of the tool, I would say that it is used to just display images on a website. When the page is opened, it gets linked to images and I display it on the website using Amazon S3.

I did not face any performance issues with Amazon S3.

I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

I use the tool for my product deployment. 

Amazon S3 is easily accessible, fast and effective. Its performance is good. 

The tool needs to improve its flexibility in support. 

I have been using the product for a couple of months. 

Amazon S3 is stable and reliable. Its resource utilization is also good. 

I rate the product's scalability an eight point five out of ten. My company has more than 200 users. 

Amazon S3's deployment takes some time. However, once you learn it, it's not complex. 

The tool's licensing costs are yearly. I rate it a six to seven out of ten. 

I rate the overall product a seven out of ten. Setting it up takes some time at the beginning, but it's reliable and stable once it's all set up.

I am using Amazon S3 for storing all the organization data, which comes from a data pipeline.

The most valuable features of Amazon S3 are the accuracy and the life cycle policies, which helps when moving from Amazon S3 to Amazon Glacier.

Amazon S3 could improve some of the features, such as indexing, or we should have more information about all the data stored in a single place. This way we can see what data resides where instead of going in different buckets, file locations manually, or searching. An index would be nice, allowing us to directly go to a location to use the date.

I have used Amazon S3 within the last 12 months.

Amazon S3 is 99.99 percent stable. The solution is highly stable.

The scalability of Amazon S3 is good. If we want more storage we only need to pay extra.

All the workloads of the whole company go to Amazon S3. As our workloads increase, the data increases, and we will use more storage in Amazon S3.

I have not used the support from Amazon S3.

The initial setup of Amazon S3 is straightforward. However, understanding the policies for the first time can take some time to figure out.

The time it takes for the deployment of the solution depends on many factors. The process can be quick.

We did the implementation of the solution in-house. There are a lot of articles and documentation available for implementation.

Most people who need to store files usually turn to Amazon S3. The use case for this is not only for me but for anyone building technology who needs to store files.

Amazon S3 helps to store data, such as Excel, audio, and video.

An important feature of the Amazon S3's system is that it offers encryption while the files are at rest. This is crucial in ensuring the security of the files being restored and addressing potential security risks. That's what I would emphasize.

The cost of the solution should be reduced.

I have been using Amazon S3 for a long time.

My rating for Amazon S3 is eight out of ten because it's a very good solution.

We use Amazon s3 to store objects like data in my environment.

In one of my previous environments, I was brought in to help with the challenges they were facing resulting from a data breach in the S3 bucket. What I noticed in that environment was that every user had full access into their S3 bucket, and accidentally deleted data without a trace.

They did not know how some of their data was missing. One of the first services I suggested was enforcing access control by applying IM best practices, such as granting list privilege permission to our users to avoid overpowering them. I created a single group and then applied specific permissions to that group.

All users added to that group were able to inherit the same permission and privileges. Versioning was enabled which keeps multiple variant of objects in the same bucket and also safeguards against accidental deletions. I also enabled multi-factor authentication which prevented accidental bug deletion by requiring the user who initiate the delete action to prove physical possession of an MFA device with an MFA code. 

The versioning of this solution for accidental deletion has been most valuable. 

You need to fully understand the solution's best practices to get the most out of its security features. 

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

The initial setup is straightforward. 

We have seen a return on investment with S3.

I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten. Pricing depends on a particular class where you want save your objects. There are different classes when it comes to storage in S3.

I would advise others that this is a scalable solution that offers comprehensive security. 

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten. 

Our company uses the solution for backups, data pumps, files, and logs. Our projects connect to the solution rather than individual users connecting to it. 

The solution is within the Amazon architecture so it easily connects with the cloud, hardware, or other services to move data. We do not need to connect to direct services to download data. 

The solution requires you to buy and use Amazon services. 

The solution could be more auto functional. 

I have been using the solution for one year. 

The stability is good so I rate it a ten out of ten. 

The solution is scalable. It is easy to add gigabytes or more users and is more a question of budget. 

I have not needed technical support. 

The setup is very easy. Every junior Dev Ops can set up the solution and use data storage. 

We implemented the solution in-house. 

There is no deployment because it is a data storage solution. 

The solution is very inexpensive at 50 cents per gigabyte, per month. 

Some packages or discounts are available. Big companies can use the solution for free. 

You can use the solution for projects that are within the Amazon architecture. 

You cannot use the solution if you have your own services or data centers because it is dependent on the Amazon architecture. 

If you have a service such as Azure in Amazon, then you can use the stream but not the solution directly. 

The solution is great for data and cloud storage. 

I recommend the solution and rate it an eight out of ten.
