Managing your S3 Storage order

S3 storage is object-based cloud storage designed for any type of data: documents, images, videos, backups, archives, and more. Access is provided via HTTP/HTTPS using unique URLs. Data is stored as independent objects with keys and metadata, organized into globally unique buckets.

Key features of S3 Storage

• Scalability — storage volume grows without limits or extra configuration
• Flexibility — access your data from anywhere in the world over HTTPS
• Reliability — multiple copies of data for protection against failures
• Versioning — store multiple versions of objects (optional)
• Cost-efficiency — multiple storage classes with flexible pricing

Common use cases

• Backups of websites, databases, and server images
• Storage for web and mobile application data
• Big Data processing and analytics
• Multimedia storage (videos, audio, photos)
• Long-term archiving (logs, documents, surveillance footage)

Once your S3 storage order is created, manage it directly in the S3 section of your personal dashboard.
