Manage versioned Amazon S3 objects in batches with a Lambda function using an AWS SDK

The following code example shows how to manage versioned S3 objects in batches with a Lambda function.

Python

SDK for Python (Boto3)

Shows how to manipulate Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) versioned objects in batches by creating jobs that call AWS Lambda functions to perform processing. This example creates a version-enabled bucket, uploads the stanzas from the poem You Are Old, Father William by Lewis Carroll, and uses Amazon S3 batch jobs to twist the poem in various ways.

Learn how to:

• Create Lambda functions that operate on versioned objects.

• Create a manifest of objects to update.

• Create batch jobs that invoke Lambda functions to update objects.

• Delete Lambda functions.

• Empty and delete a versioned bucket.
