Overview

RudderStack supports Amazon S3 as a destination. Once enabled, you can seamlessly store your customer event data into your S3 buckets for analytics. If building a custom ETL pipeline for analytics is your goal, routing your data from RudderStack to Amazon S3 is the way to go! RudderStack ensures that the data sent to S3 does not need to be cleaned or formatted, so you can directly pick it up for analysis. The data stored in the S3 bucket is a line-separated JSON object, each line corresponding to the data from a single API call made to RudderStack.

Add Amazon S3 as a destination in RudderStack and:

Store your events in your S3 bucket without having to worry about the size or the scale of the data
Eliminate the need to format or clean your data before using it for analytics
Build a custom data pipeline and perform your analysis with ease

Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a cloud-based object storage service that allows customers and businesses to store their data securely, and at scale. With an easy to use interface and management features, S3 allows for effortless organizing of data to meet the business-specific requirements.

FAQs

What is Amazon S3 used for?

Amazon S3 is a object storage that enables developers to send data from Databases & Object Storage.

How much does it cost to integrate Amazon S3 with RudderStack?

You can send up to 1 million events to Amazon S3 for free. RudderStack offers transparent, volume-based event pricing. See RudderStack's pricing.

How does AWS S3 work?

Within the S3 service, users can create ‘buckets’. These buckets are used to store object-based files and can be thought of as folders. When an individual or groups of files are uploaded to the buckets, you can explicitly specify the type of S3 storage to be used for these objects.

How is Amazon S3 implemented?

Objects are the basic storage units of Amazon S3, which are organized into buckets. Each object can be identified by a unique, user-assigned key. You can manage the buckets using either the Amazon S3 console, the Amazon S3 REST API, or programmatically using the AWS SDK.

How fast is AWS S3?

The traffic between Amazon EC2 and Amazon S3 can take up to 25 gbps of bandwidth. That said, the data transfer rate between an EC2 instance and an S3 bucket depends on several factors, such as the region where the S3 instance and the buckets are located.

Is it hard to set up Amazon S3?

Difficulty can vary based on your data structure, data cleanliness and required destinations. Many users choose to simplify implementation by sending data through secure object storage integration tools like RudderStack.
