Bucket Explorer helps you in cutting your
cost of storing and transferring data
using Amazon S3. Read on to know how?
Using Bucket Explorer, a user has to pay less because it reduces the number of
PUT
or
LIST
requests which are 10 times costlier than the other requests .
For example
-
In ‘
update access control list
' of buckets or objects, if a user does not make any change in the permissions and clicks on the ‘
save'
button, then without using Bucket Explorer it will be a
PUT
operation in S3 and the user will have to pay for it. But, if you use Bucket Explorer then the
PUT
operation will not be performed in such case and hence, the user saves money.
-
Existing Files on S3 with same contents/Size as per selection : In case of uploading a file which already exists in a bucket and if the contents of the two files are same, then using bucket explorer,
PUT
operation will not take place and again you save money.
-
Set Default Bucket : This feature is used to set default setting on the new objects while uploading like “
ACL
” and “
Metadata
”. It saves the additional request for
ACL/metadata
update for new object if user wants to set same ACL/metadata on uploaded objects as of bucket.. So Using Default Bucket option user can save individual request for “ACL and Metadata” and she has to pay only for upload request.
Note
: For identical ACL case request will not be send.
These are some of the examples, where using
‘Bucket Explorer'
you can cut the cost of storing and transferring your data with the Amazon S3.
