filesystems - amazon s3 partitioning of files best practices -


hopefully simple question - apologies if it's been answered nothing came in search.

on s3 better organizes images smaller subdirectories, or keep them in 1 directory? in typical filesystem 1 namespace images in directories improve performance. flat structure thousands of images in 1 directory doesn't perform well. case on amazon s3?

i can put user images users folder, post images posts folder, etc. or can put user images folders users/{userid} avoid having thousands of images in 1 users folder.

this problem amazon s3 well, albeit significant storage requirements, see amazon s3 performance tips & tricks detailed answer including strategies partitioning object space.

update (september 2013) – information in above link, while still largely accurate, has been supplanted newer document, s3 request rate , performance considerations.
