Immutable blobs are really the right choice with s3, as it's eventually-consistent (when using it as a blob store anyway. If you're hosting a static site or similar it's a bit tricky to immutableize and not necessarily worth the effort).
- mattrobenolt 10y agoWe even go a step further, and our blobs are 100% content addressable. :) So caching is super easy for us.
- bpicolo 10y agoYep, file shas are a great choice. UUIDs are typically fine too. One sort of weird case is if I have an image key (sha-based) and want to store thumbnail sizes: 'bae6ff187e4c491e5de9cfa3b039ce7da8255798' makes sense as a base key, but really I want bae6ff187e4c491e5de9cfa3b039ce7da8255798/400x400 for thumbnails rather than storing individual thumbnail shas, hah.
