Why Are Fragments Generated?

Fragments are incomplete data in buckets generated due to data upload failures.

Data can be uploaded to OBS using multipart uploads. There will be fragments generated, if a multipart upload fails because of the following causes (included but not limited to):

• The network is in poor conditions, and the connection to the OBS server is interrupted frequently.
• The upload task is manually suspended.
• The device is faulty.
• The device is powered off suddenly.
