Correct answer: Create an S3 Lifecycle rule on the bucket to expire and remove incomplete multipart uploads or expired multipart markers..
Why this is the answer
The correct approach is to create an S3 Lifecycle rule. S3 Lifecycle rules allow you to define actions that Amazon S3 should take during an object's lifetime. Specifically, you can configure a rule to expire incomplete multipart uploads after a specified number of days, preventing them from accumulating and incurring storage costs. Requiring users to upload with S3 TransferUtility doesn't directly address existing incomplete uploads or prevent future ones from being abandoned. S3 Versioning keeps multiple versions of an object and doesn't manage incomplete multipart uploads. Building an S3 Object Lambda Access Point is an overly complex and inappropriate solution for simply deleting incomplete multipart uploads; lifecycle rules are designed for this exact purpose.
