S3 Insights

PreviousCost & Usage BreakdownNextAutomate

Last updated 4 days ago

The Insights page identifies cost-saving opportunities for your S3 bucket. Insights are generated dynamically based on your bucket’s current setup and usage patterns. Only relevant insights are shown — so what you see is tailored to your buckets configuration.

What You’ll See for Each Insight

Each insight provides:

  • Description A concise summary of the configuration issue and the opportunity detected.

  • Analysis A data-backed explanation of why the issue exists and how it affects cost.

  • Recommendation A suggested action to optimize your bucket configuration and reduce costs.

  • Benefits (optional) Some insights include a Benefits section outlining the potential impact of following the recommendation — such as estimated savings.

  • Create Ticket If you want to take action, click Create Ticket to open a ticket creation form with several fields already prefilled for your convenience.

Types of Insights You May Encounter

OneLens analyzes several best practices and inefficiencies. Depending on your configuration, you may see insights such as:

  • Inefficient Lifecycle Policies Driving Up Transition Costs

  • Excessive Primary Storage Expenses

  • Excessive Data Retrieval Expenses

  • Surging Write Activity Charges

  • Unrestricted Versioning: No Expiry Configured

  • Surging Outbound Data Transfer Costs

  • Consider Expiry on Incomplete Multipart Uploads

  • Tier Down Non-Current Versions to Reduce Storage Expenses

  • Reactivate the Inactive Lifecycle Policy to Reduce Costs

  • The Charges for List Requests Are Steep

Insights are refreshed daily based on the most recent data from your bucket. You can act on any recommendation immediately using the Create Ticket option provided on each insight card.
