  Hi Jeff, I'm not sure of the answer, but: Bob says I'd like to play around with data x on S3, or grab report z on S3. They are used to the Dropbox / drive / box etc model. That's often invite by email or allow *@domain.com permission. But how does this work in S3, how do you invite someone, how do they self provision their credentials without admin involvement etc? For a non aws/s3 user? One thing you can do, make bucket world readable. Big user base plus more stuff collecting in S3 from various systems seems to drive some risk, not sure how s3 solves for above or if it should (email or domain invite, self provisioning of credentials if not on platform etc). Tie into workdocs somehow? Push into competitor tools? This issue also comes up in the cross account / org situation. Want to invite someone outside of org to read data etc. Tools to do this, but it takes more work than folks are used to with other approaches. Pretty soon something is world readable. API side for developers works great. Be curious if others had use cases that create gravity towards world readable - because s3 by default is not, but a relatively high number of people end up there for some reason. Be interesting to try to give them what they want in addition to lockdown tools.
