!!! warning
Whilst it might seem counter-intuitive, a **pull**-based transfer is significantly simpler than a **push**-based transfer. Notably, it avoids [issues](https://stackoverflow.com/a/63804619) with ownership issues and ACLs.
These can be solved by overwriting the file's ACLs to enforce the bucket owner owns the file:
```
aws s3 cp --recursive 's3://<destination_bucket>` 's3://<destination_bucket>` --acl bucket-owner-full-control --metadata-directive REPLACE
```
