Is it possible to get access to files in an old/inactive S3 bucket?
Many moons ago I was in a band, and we had a website with our songs stored in Amazon AWS. I recently found that our site was archived on the Way Back Machine. But unfortunately, the audio was in S3 and those URLs don't work.
<Code>NoSuchBucket</Code>
<Message>The specified bucket does not exist</Message>
WBM did not archive these URLs (understandably).
I no longer have any AWS account because Amazon is poopy.
Are these files lost to time, or is there some magic way to retrieve them?
Nope if the account is gone the data in the S3 buckets after 90 days or immediately if the bucket is deleted.
This. If none pays for it, AWS is not holding it any longer than it absolutely needs to.
That and they don't want the liability.
Might want to check some other archives and see if they somehow saved them
