When Jeff Bezos commissioned Amazon S3 he called it "malloc for the web"; since then many people have considered cloud object storage to be a weird kind of non Posix filesystem, but also a great backing store for websites or storing lots of data. Recently more and more applications are being built with object storage as the entire persistence layer. This started with analytics databases such as Snowflake and Databricks, and the open source Delta Lake and Apache Iceberg projects. More recently the use is spreading to even more applications, from observability to streaming data and more. In this talk we look at why it is becoming so popular, the benefits, downsides and performance characteristics, and how and when to use it effectively.
