      Yeah the whole AWS ecosystem has a super shitty naming. Everybody knows S3, but what kind of name is that? All the other services are no better

        Simple Storage Service

        E: I agree that their names are shit though. But S3 makes sense (once you know what it means). Just like boto3 makes sense (once you know what it means)
