Why would it be abuse? Serving e.g. map tiles on a busy site can get up to tens of thousands of qps, I'd have thought serving that from S3 would have made sense

Why would it be abuse? Serving e.g. map tiles on a busy site can get up to tens of thousands of qps, I'd have thought serving that from S3 would have made sense if it weren't so expensive.
- Esophagus4 1y agoI don’t know much about map tiles… but could that be done more effectively through a CDN or cache, and then have S3 behind it? Then the CDN takes the beating. So this still sounds like S3 abuse to me. But I leave room for being wrong here. Edit: presumably if your site is big enough to serve 50k RPS it’s big enough for a cache?
