I could write a poem about the succinct beauty of this response.
Quick question: should we be concerned with the number of files per directory and / or the number of directories?
Put another way, could we use your solution with a single giant directory of ~10mb files spanning roughly 100TB?
- neximo64 5y agoIt shouldn't be an issue. S3 stores the data as blobs and the directory listing is contrived to seem similar to a file system. So you can have unlimited files in there. 100 TB should also be just fine. There's also some other nice features such as ACLs, automated backups, expirations that could work as its one of AWS's more mature products. Some more info on the files per directory: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/394198/max-files-per-directory-in-s3 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/394198/max-files-per-dir...
