Im trying to have a replica of my s3 bucket in a local folder. it should be updated when a change occurs on the bucket.

CodePudding user response：

You can use the aws cli s3 sync command to copy ('synchronize') files from an Amazon S3 bucket to a local drive.

To have it update frequently, you could schedule it as a Windows Scheduled Tasks. Please note that it will be making frequent calls to AWS, which will incur API charges ($0.005 per 1000 requests).

Alternatively, you could use utilities that 'mount' an Amazon S3 bucket as a drive (Tntdrive, Cloudberry, Mountain Duck, etc). I'm not sure how they detect changes -- they possibly create a 'virtual drive' where the data is not actually downloaded until it is accessed.
