Multiple Expire lifecycle policy configs in S3

Lets say I have folder-a/ , folder-b/ and folder-logs/ in S3 bucket.

I want to preserve folder-logs/ objects for 90 days, objects older than 90 days can be deleted. All other objects except folder-logs/ can be deleted in 30 days.

I have created a lifecycle config as

  1. Expire objects older than 90 days. Prefix - folder-logs/
  2. Expire all items in 30 days.

So, what happens to my folder-logs/ objects. Does 2nd rule takes precedence here? i.e., the folder-logs/ objects gets deleted after 30 days or it is preserved for 90 days? And does order of the lifecycle config matters here?.

I have created two lifecycle configs as mentioned above. Just wanted to know the result. This bucket is not enabled with versioning.

Your objects will expire in 30 days, as explained in AWS docs:

if two expiration policies overlap, the shorter expiration policy is honored so that data is not stored for longer than expected.
