S3 storage costs10/28/2023 Delete operations are free, so there's no extra cost there. The cost is 1 API LIST call per 1000 objects in the bucket. It calls a DeleteObjects API method, deleting 1000 at a time. Here's what it does: It calls a LIST on the bucket, pagination through the objects in the bucket 1000 at a time. You can click that button and watch the S3 console make API calls on your behalf. Within the last year, AWS added a handy Empty button to the S3 console when viewing a bucket. Note that I'm mostly talking about objects in Standard storage tiers. Here's a collection of fun ways to empty out a bucket before deleting it. Side note: The strategy to delete a bucket with many files quickly vs cheaply are not the same. This really only matters for buckets with many objects, but I see the question about the quickest and cheapest ways to delete a bucket often enough that I thought it would be useful to show how. So, to get a list of objects, you need to paginate through all of them, 1000 at a time. The cost is cheap enough where emptying a bucket is often cheap, but it depends on how many objects are in the bucket!įurthermore, LIST operations can only grab 1000 objects at a time. So, while DELETE operations are free, LIST operations (to get a list of objects) are not free ( ~$.0 requests, varying a bit by region).
