S3 billing is calculated based on three primary parameters:
-
Storage used (amount of data stored)
-
GET/HEAD requests (data retrieval and metadata operations)
-
PUT/POST requests (data upload operations)
You can review detailed usage analytics through the S3 Storage Control Panel at:

Note: The Analytics view differs between a group administrator and a standard user.
