Introduction to Amazon S3
Amazon S3
• Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), provides secure, durable, highly-scalable object storage.
• Amazon S3 stores data as objects within resources called "buckets." You can store as many objects as you want within a bucket, and write, read, and delete objects in your bucket. Objects can be up to 5
terabytes in size.
• Amazon S3 is easy to use, with a simple web service interface to store and retrieve any amount of data from anywhere on the web.
S3 Benefits

Available
• Amazon S3 Standard is designed for up to 99.99% availability of objects over a given year and is

You can also configure bucket policies to manage object permissions and control access to your data
using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).

• With Amazon S3, you can store as much data as you want and access it when needed. You can stop
guessing your future storage needs and scale up and down as required, dramatically increasing
