Cost of updating Web Site hosted on AWS S3

I have a static web site hosted on S3 in the free tier. This tier gives me "2,000 Put, Copy, Post or List Requests of Amazon S3" which I am regularly exceeding.

Given that my web site has 92 files in it when rendered using Next.js and I keep a test and prod version of the web site, does this mean that every time I deploy a new version it counts as 184 updates to S3?

Extra info: I do a very simple deployment: build on a local Jenkins, saving a tar file to an artefacts S3 bucket, untar to to local then use a "aws s3 sync" command to copy to my bucket.

You’re correct, this limit counts towards individual files that you’re uploading.

Remember that AWS S3 sync also performs ListObjects when it executes so this too will count (although this is a paginated request that returns 1000 objects at a time so it counts as one).

The sync command should only copy new and modified files so you should only see these requests count in the free tier limit.
