“Q: What data consistency model does Amazon S3 employ?Amazon S3 buckets in the US Standard region provide eventual consistency. Amazon S3 buckets in all other regions provide read-after-write consistency for PUTS of new objects and eventual consistency for overwrite PUTS and DELETES. ”
Is this a mistaken claim?

We have our buckets outside US Standard region.

If we did a flow of source->create object in S3 to a landing area -> read from that, create object in storage area -> read from that… you say that this would result in data inconsistency?
