Use object storage (S3, GCS, Azure Blob) correctly as a database layer. Use when writing code that stores state in object storage, builds transaction logs on S3, implements coordination primitives on object stores, or designs data systems with S3 as primary storage. Activates on patterns like writing metadata or state to S3, concurrent writers to the same S3 key, append-only logs in object storage, or any system using S3 as more than a simple blob store.
