Amazon S3 Storage Lens is now available in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions

Amazon S3 Storage Lens provides organization-wide visibility into your storage usage and activity. S3 Storage Lens is now available in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, bringing metrics to help you optimize storage costs, identify data protection opportunities, and improve application performance.

S3 Storage Lens provides a single view of object storage usage and activity across thousands of accounts in an organization, with drill-downs to generate insights at multiple aggregation levels. You can optimize storage costs by identifying prefixes with incomplete multipart uploads or buckets accumulating non-current object versions. You can identify buckets that don’t follow your data protection best practices, such as using S3 Cross-Region Replication to replicate data across AWS Regions or S3 Versioning to keep multiple versions of an object. With the newly added performance metrics, you can identify application performance constraints—for example, using request and object size distribution metrics to detect inefficient access patterns or tracking cross-Region data transfer to reduce latency and costs.

Amazon S3 Storage Lens is available in all AWS Regions. S3 Storage Lens is pre-configured to receive free metrics by default for all customers and 14 days of historical data. For more detailed visibility with up to 15 months data retention, you can upgrade to S3 Storage Lens advanced metrics. To learn more about S3 Storage Lens metrics, including free and advanced metrics, refer to the documentation. For S3 Storage Lens Advanced pricing details, visit the Amazon S3 pricing page.
