In rare occasions, the retry mechanism might cause duplicate notifications for the same object event.Amazon S3 event notifications are delivered as JSON objects that contain a sequencer key. This key is a hexadecimal value that you can use to identify the event sequence of PUTs and DELETEs for the same object. Duplicate event notifications for a specific object event have the same value for the sequencer key.For applications that must identify duplicate notifications, it's a best practice to maintain a secondary database or index of S3 objects using event notifications. Then, store and compare the sequencer key values to check for duplicates as each event notification is processed.Follow"
