How do you search an amazon s3 bucket?

Question

I have a bucket with thousands of files in it. How can I search the bucket? Is there a tool you can recommend?

Answer 1

I faced the same problem. Searching in S3 should be much more easier than the current situation. That's why, I implemented this open source tool for searching in S3.

SSEARCH is full open source S3 search tool. It has been implemented always keeping mind that the performance is the critical factor and according to the benchmarks it searches the bucket which contains ~1000 files within seconds.

Installation is simple. You only download docker-compose file and running it with

docker-compose up

SSEARCH will be started and you can search anything in any bucket you have.
