AWS – Amazon S3 Express One Zone now supports S3 Lifecycle expirations

Amazon S3 Express One Zone, a high-performance S3 storage class for latency-sensitive applications, now supports object expiration using S3 Lifecycle. S3 Lifecycle can expire objects based on age to help you automatically optimize storage costs.

Now, you can configure S3 Lifecycle rules for S3 Express One Zone to expire objects on your behalf. You can configure an S3 Lifecycle expiration rule either for your entire bucket or for a subset of objects by filtering by prefix or object size. For example, you can create an S3 Lifecycle rule that expires all objects smaller than 512 KB after 3 days and another rule that expires all objects in a prefix after 10 days. Additionally, S3 Lifecycle logs S3 Express One Zone object expirations in AWS CloudTrail, giving you the ability to monitor, set alerts for, and audit them.

Amazon S3 Express One Zone support for S3 Lifecycle expiration is generally available in all AWS Regions where the storage class is available. You can get started with S3 Lifecycle using the Amazon S3 REST API, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or AWS Software Development Kit (SDK) client. To learn more about S3 Lifecycle, visit the S3 User Guide.
