Microservices for days. I worked on lifecycle ~5 years ago and just the Standard -> Glacier transition path involved no fewer than 7 microservices. Just determining which of the 400 trillion keys are eligible for a lifecycle action (comparing each object's metadata against the lifecycle policy on the bucket) is a massive big data job. Always was a fun oncall when some bucket added a lifecycle rule that queued 1PB+ of data for transition or deletion on the same day. At the time our queuing had become good enough to handle these queues gracefully but our alarming hadn't figured out how to differentiate between the backlog for a single customer with a huge job and the whole system failing to process quickly enough. IIRC this was being fixed as I left.
