Hi, Anyone aware of where exactly are the metaflow artifacts like dataframes in the intermediate steps are stored if we dont explicitly upload them to s3? I guess it pickles them and stores on s3 itself?

Exactly that — they are stored in S3 in a content-addressed manner

Thanks for the clarification @dry-beach-38304!

If I could just tag onto this... could you confirm that it is acceptable to use a single metadata service for multiple MF clusters?

Do they get deleted automatically?

No, given that they are content addressed, the objects are shared by multiple runs

Also, it allows for fetching the contents of your run at any time in the future using the metaflow client
