How do I empty an Amazon S3 bucket using a lifecycle configuration rule?

[@hikingcloud]

All these video solely focuses on how, better way is to explain the why behind those configuration changes.

Thank you, this tutorial really helps 🙂

Even when we set these expirations to 1 day, aren't we charged for a minimum of 30 days of storage?

Hi Victor, great question! 👂 According to this official doc you would be correct: go.aws/3JwFTWE. However, if you have additional questions, this article details all the options you have to get an answer: go.aws/get-help. 📚 ^DC

I looked up online and was shocked to read something like S3 deleting your files in 30 days, so does that mean that it'll only delete it if you create a policy? Otherwise the data stays there forever until you manually delete it?

[@awssupport]

Hello! During the S3 Lifecycle, you are able to specify some dates for each action to take place. You can find some examples of those rules, here: go.aws/4bWU7wG. ^RB

[@itpugil]

@@awssupport so by default, with no lifecycle policy/policies defined, data stored in S3 stays there forever unless you manually delete it? Is it the same for S3 Glacier?

[@awssupport]

You can review this document for more information on data stored within S3: go.aws/3IsNsgi. For additonal support, you can reach out via re:Post here: go.aws/aws-repost. ^AM

Why do we need to create 2 rules to do 1 thing

This does not work using boto3, since you cannot overlap a prefix. Huge limitation.
