Hi @itsyosefali, thanks for reaching out. I'm going to convert this into a discussion, since it is more of a guidance question that is better suited as a discussion. As mentioned in the bucket limitations documentation, buckets have no limit on the number of objects they can contain. If your objects are to be uploaded on a regular schedule, you could use bucket lifecycles to have older objects be deleted. Otherwise, you're right that you'd have to use Lambda or some other service to automate these deletions. Please let me know if you have any other questions. |

You are correct that the bucket would continue to delete objects as they expire. If you are concerned about upload failures, you could use AWS Backup to backup your S3 bucket, and be able to restore to a point in time prior to your upload failures. Alternatively, you could try a CloudWatch alarm based on the number of objects in the bucket. |
