This article discusses a solution for integrating custom metadata with Amazon S3 Metadata using various AWS services to manage and extract metadata from objects stored in S3.

• The solution uses S3 Metadata, S3 Tables, Amazon Rekognition, AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and Apache Flink to capture and manage object metadata
• A sample workflow demonstrates metadata extraction from images, including labels and dimensions
• The solution allows querying objects based on both system-generated and custom metadata
• Key components include:
  • S3 table bucket to store metadata
  • Lambda functions for metadata extraction
  • DynamoDB for event ordering
  • Apache Flink for processing events
• Provides example queries to search and filter objects based on content metadata and object tags

The solution helps organizations efficiently manage, organize, and retrieve digital content by automating metadata extraction and management.
