I'm guessing he's NOT talking about S3's user data. He's talking about runtime logs of the S3 service, or possibly logs from Amazon's services that are written to S3. Amazon has ~100K services running on millions of EC2 instances. (Generalizing) each service writes logs to the local machine, and then later compresses and transmits them to a set of systems that are backed by S3 for monitoring / further bulk processing etc. Some back of the envelope math on this: For 1 exabyte to be the number, that equates to < 1TB average logs kept per host. Depending on what the service is doing log retention is 3mo / 1y / 10y. Using those numbers we're talking per service average 12-460 MB/hour. |
