It’s nice having the metadata around the push available versus raw blobs to s3.

Objects in S3 can have custom metadata associated with them. Look at the returned data for the HeadObject call.[0]

It's not advertised in the documentation, but HeadObject(Bucket, Key)['Metadata'] is a neat dictionary of custom values.

S3 supports metadata (see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/user-guide/add-o...).

Perhaps I don't understand what you're saying fully though--as I don't fully understand your comment.
