Yeah—I know I didn’t mention that. You can build this type of system on top of S3 + CAS. The “append” feature isn’t necessary for functionality, it just improv

Yeah—I know I didn’t mention that. You can build this type of system on top of S3 + CAS.
The “append” feature isn’t necessary for functionality, it just improves the cost / performance.
The idea of running your own database on top of S3 is, well, it’s gonna be janky. It’s not ideal. You do end up seeing databases running on top of S3 (I’ve seen some), and sometimes it even makes sense.
