It's a great product that's always available and is the gold standard for object storage in the cloud. I don't have any complains.
Pros
It's simple, it works and it's cheap. Any time I need to store unorganised data my default is to put it in an S3 bucket. I love how it's the industry standard and any data analytics tools always have an s3 integration.
Cons
I wish I could see a preview of objects stored in the buckets without having to download them

Amazon S3 for Big data
Reviewed on 2018/12/12
Pros
Amazon S3 is the best file system in the space that deals with Big Data. Amazon S3 is able to host big files in an elastic way without worry about out of space. Amazon S3 assigns user roles to each individual bucket. The administrator can define read and write access policies for the entire bucket.
Cons
The first issue in Amazon S3 is that it does not provide email notification to the users in case that a bucket or a sub-directory has been changed by adding/deleting files. Also, integrating S3 with SSO is really challenging. Regardless the fact that Amazon S3 deals with Big Data, the Amazon S3 client API has many problems when a file size is greater than 5GB. A lot of workarounds should be done to split big files into parts and merge them successfully.

Reviewed on 2024/08/02
Pros
One of the things I liked most about Amazon S3 was its reliability and scalability. The service is designed to handle large amounts of data and deliver it quickly without any interruptions or delays. This makes it perfect for businesses and individuals who need a reliable storage solution for their data. Additionally, the pricing structure of S3 is very competitive, making it a cost-effective option for storing large amounts of data. The user interface is also user-friendly and allows for easy management of data and access control. Overall, I found Amazon S3 to be a highly efficient and dependable cloud storage service.
Cons
It was challenging to set up and configure initially. The pricing structure can also be confusing and it was difficult to accurately estimate the cost. Additionally, data transfer and access speeds can be slow at times, causing delays and frustration.

Swiss Army knife of cloud storage
Reviewed on 2024/05/17
Pros
Uploading and finding files is a breeze, and knowing my stuff is safe and always accessible gives me peace of mind. Plus, the ability to scale up without breaking a sweat is a game-changer. But hey, let's talk about the elephant in the room - the pricing. It's like trying to decipher a puzzle sometimes, especially as your storage needs grow.
Cons
While Amazon S3 is fantastic for storing my files, sometimes retrieving them feels like waiting for water to boil. And yeah, that pricing labyrinth?

I used Amazon S3 as a storage service in a Snowflake environment. I was amazed on how easy it is to integrate between the two environments as well as how fast it was to retrieve data stored in S3 from Snowflake.
Pros
Amazon S3 is one of the amazing storage service I have used as a data engineer. It's ability to store variety of data types (structured, semi-structured and unstructured) as well as the ease at which it can store and retrieve any size of data makes it a fantastic tool for big data engineering.
Cons
My only con is the cost effectiveness especially when used as a learning environment.

I use S3 Deep Storage to archive backups I don't access often, saving local storage and at a really affordable price.
Pros
Pricing is flexible and you pay by use and by storage type. If you need you can deliver assets directly from S3 buckets to clients.
Cons
To access to S3 storage you need to use their APIs or dedicated software. It's not easy as other storage solutions.

Cons
It should provide a guideline for fresher users to understand all the flows in the product rest sometimes transfer costs should be less.

Excellent way to store files
Reviewed on 2023/04/14
Pros
Much easier to store and organise files in comparison to other sites. Being able to store a large number of sizeable files in one place securely is great. Easy to ensure only those who need the files have them and easy to revoke access too.
Cons
Slightly difficult to understand everything at first glance but once you get your head around the setup then it’s easy. So not the easiest to use straight away for novices.

S3, at least in terms of distributed storage, has genuinely transformed the world. Calling an API, pushing data to it, and then forgetting about the data center that holds it is an idea that none of us would have believed a few years ago, yet here we are, with massive quantities of businesses relying on S3 and prospering. Since the first introduction of S3, Amazon has constantly developed and released capabilities, each of which is incredibly valuable and complementary to the preceding feature set.
We utilize S3 for a variety of applications, from public UGC buckets for web apps to internal data vaults that store sensitive and confidential information that is protected at rest. S3 is a good fit. I began by utilising S3 as an off-site backup service, then expanded to include additional services. It performs its goal admirably, although it is a touch inconvenient, with several modifications along the process and a rigid business strategy.
Pros
We don't worry about the help since we're on vacation because it's so accessible and repetitious.
Use Amazon's SDKs to get basic functionality from a variety of structures, or create your own.
There are a plethora of container techniques and security improvements that may be tailored to meet the demands of individual clients. Solid compatibility with the AWS biology system, notably in terms of access permissions. It's so reliable that you can count on it to stay online and available from anywhere in the earth. Its static site facilitating feature is a hidden gem: it provides the least priced, most reliable, and high-performing static web facilitating available in PaaS. In today's world, data is king, thus storing large amounts of data is critical. Amazon's Simple Storage Solution (s3) is the finest and most cheap cloud storage service on the market. On S3, we may store large amounts of data in a variety of formats, including documents, text files, PDFs, audio, video, and more. S3 offers a variety of storage choices, including frequent data and seldom used data that may be saved on AWS Glacier's low-cost storage. The data is stored on AWS S3 and protected with multi-level access protocols such as public, private, and so on.
Cons
AWS environment is riddled with perplexing and incomprehensible configuration options, and S3 is no exception. Fortunately, it's widely used, to the point that you can always find arrangements on sites like StackOverflow. Because S3 defaults to security rather than open access, getting IAM consents to work correctly for Static Website facilitating takes some trial and error. Because AWS S3 is incompatible with system-level applications such as desktops, it has to find a solution that is simple to use. We are unable to store files larger than 5 GB.
