    The unfortunate part of that graph is that I think it's not updated for today's prices given the memory shortage/crunch we're experiencing that's driven up the prices for all kinds of memory.

    But also while it should be faster than it is, how would an S3 designed around SSDs look differently to an API user? I would think the API is basically the same.

      It would probably look a lot like existing S3 concepts that have explicit hot and cold tiers. For example Intelligent Tiering, or Glacier.
