Amazon S3 turned 20 on Pi Day, March 14. In this live conversation, I’ll sit down with Paul Meighan (Director, Product Management, Data & Analytics at AWS), to explore how S3 evolved into the storage foundation for modern data platforms, analytics, and AI workloads.
We’ll discuss the architectural decisions behind S3’s massive scale, how it powered the rise of data lakes and lakehouses, and what new capabilities like S3 Tables, S3 Metadata, and S3 Vectors mean for teams building analytics and AI systems today.
