S3 Bucket - High bandwidth usage within 2 days of creation

0

Hi,

Quick question I hope someone can help explain. I created an S3 bucket in order to offload media files from Wordpress (approx 2.4Gb). I offloaded the media, connected it to WP. Fine. No problem. Then, 2 days later, checking the billing, we ran up $75 of usage due to 850Gb of bandwidth use on a single day.

The website is relatively small, sees an average of 400 users per day, it's an ecommerce site, which displays 4-6 images per product, but these are all optimised (size and res), and no videos are stored on the server.

How can I find out exactly what happened? Is there a way I can see if a specific IP address scraped the bucket multiple times? It just doesn't make much sense (obviously I'm very new to AWS and S3, so possibly there's a rookie error there somewhere).

Thanks for reading.

Hi,

In order to better understand who or what is accessing your bucket you should make use of Monitoring S3 access with Server Access Logging https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/ServerLogs.html

It will help you to better understand who or what is accessing your S3 bucket and objects and better understand the S3 usage bill.

Thanks for the recommendation. However, I presume this wouldn't retrospecitively help, in this case. On a fundamental level, I don't understand how AWS can bill me without saying exactly what it's billing me for. It's such a substantial bandwidth figure.
