AWS S3: how do I see how much disk space is using

Question

I have AWS account. I\'m using S3 to store backups from different servers. The question is there any information in the AWS console about how much disk space is in use in my

Answer 1

Well, you can do it also through an S3 client if you prefer a human friendly UI.

I use CrossFTP, which is free and cross-platform, and there you can right-click on the folder directory -> select "Properties..." -> click on "Calculate" button next to Size and voila.

Answer 2

s3cmd can show you this by running s3cmd du, optionally passing the bucket name as an argument.

Answer 3

This is an old inquiry, but since I was looking for the answer I ran across it. Some of the answers made me remember I use S3 Browser to manage data. You can click on a bucket and hit properties and it shows you the total. Pretty simple. I highly recommend the browser: https://s3browser.com/default.aspx?v=6-1-1&fam=x64

Answer 4

The AWS console wont show you this but you can use Bucket Explorer or Cloudberry Explorer to get the total size of a bucket. Both have free versions available.

Note: these products still have to get the size of each individual object, so it could take a long time for buckets with lots of objects.

Answer 5

s3admin is an opensource app (UI) that lets you browse buckets, calculate total size, show largest/smallest files. It's tailored for having a quick overview of your Buckets and their usage.
