Amazon’s phrasing is “Designed to provide 99.999999999% durability …”

Andy Warfield gave a pretty good explanation of what they do to achieve this.

Annoying detail about S3's new `If-Match` implementation: these writes can fail with 409 Conflict (docs: docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/lat...)

I guess you're just meant to retry, but it's not clear to me why S3 wouldn't just retry internally. The whole point is that the requests are now idempotent!

I was worried about the costs of hosting election visualizations on #AWS using #AmazonS3 and #AmazonCloudfront, but since I published my first visualizations on August 7, I have eaten literally pennies of incremental costs. Gofundme not forthcoming yet. 🤞

Most AWS admins optimize S3 for cost and performance. But what about user experience?

Better S3 UX = happier teams and smoother workflows.

Here's how to improve it:

ok so based on this doc: aws calls for safe set of characters, ripping off regex from old notes [0-9A-Za-z!._*'()-]. key length from 1 byte to 1024 byte

so we r looking at n=70^1+70^2…+70^1024

so that’s a geometric series w common ratio 70 we can use formula

Using a VPC on AWS to isolate your traffic is the right answer in many cases and using private subnets is the right default most of the time.

🆕 AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery now supports AWS Graviton-based servers, enabling no-cost disaster recovery for arm64 workloads. It automatically detects and recovers Graviton instances, preserving architecture in all regions where AWS DRS is available.

AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery now supports AWS Graviton-based source servers
AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS) now supports disaster recovery for AWS Graviton-based (arm64) source servers. You can now protect and recover your Graviton workloads with the same simple, reliable DRS experience you already use for x86 workloads. As more workloads move to Graviton for its price-performance benefits, they need the same disaster recovery coverage as the rest of your environment. DRS now automatically detects arm64 source servers and recovers them onto Graviton instances, preserving your workload's architecture end to end. Recovery works the same way it does for your other servers, with nothing extra to configure. This capability is available in all AWS Regions where AWS DRS is offered, at no additional cost. To learn more, visit the AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery User Guide.
