删除 AWS S3 中的对象

Question

I'm trying to understand the delete operation of an object in aws S3. In cross region replication, if I delete an object from the source, this delete is not propagated to the destination.

The official text - "If you specify an object version ID to delete in a DELETE request, Amazon S3 deletes that object version in the source bucket, but it doesn't replicate the deletion in the destination bucket. In other words, it doesn't delete the same object version from the destination bucket. This protects data from malicious deletions. "

In other case, I read that

The official text - Amazon S3 offers eventual consistency for overwrite PUTS and DELETES in all Regions

When I made a test, the delete is not propagated. Then, there is a divergence between the replica !

Is it normal ? how about the eventual consistency of the delete ?

Answer 1

This is not about replication, it's about simple buckets from Introduction to AWS S3.

Amazon S3 offers eventual consistency for overwrite PUTS and DELETES in all Regions

The right answer - "it doesn't delete the same object version from the destination bucket. This protects data from malicious deletions".

If you need "consistency of the delete" - you can try to automate it with aws s3 sync with --delete flag.
