AWS S3 Requests
-
I’m using S3 to store my backups since 2 weeks.
Currently I have 27 Files within my bucket.
Yesterday I received an email telling me I reached the limit of the free tier because of to many requests.The limit is 2000 requests and I already used 2301 PUT, COPY, POST, LIST requests and 790 GET Request.
How could this happen? How can 27 files from 3 WordPress websites cause over 2300 Requests within 2 weeks?
All three pages are set up to backup files weekly and database daily
I set up WordPress as described here: http://updraftplus.com/faqs/what-settings-should-i-use-for-amazon-s3-and-how-should-i-configure-my-amazon-s3-account/
The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

There doesn’t appear to be anything particularly unusual there. Uploading a file, and checking its upload state, can require multiple HTTP API calls; exactly how many will depend upon its size, and the network conditions.
Since AWS’s pricing is $0.005 per 1,000 requests (or $0.004 for GET requests) – https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/ – and it looks like you’re on course for about 3,000 a month over the free allowance…. so, requests are likely to cost you under $0.02 per month!
