 The benefit of this approach is that once the files are uploaded, no further movement is required to change the embargo state, eliminating the storage, egress, and time costs associated with unembargoing from a second bucket. Using S3 Batch Operations to perform the untagging also means we can rely on AWS’s own error reporting mechanisms, while retrying any failed operations requires only minimal engineering effort within the Archive codebase.
