Tram Ho

PREAMBLE

Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a great service to store files most popular in today’s cloud computing technology, which stores files as an object in buckets.

Buckets are containers for objects. You can create one or more buckets. For each bucket, you can control access to it (who can create, delete and view objects in the bucket), view the log of access to the bucket and to the objects inside, as well as select the region where Amazon S3 will save the bucket and its contents.

Using the AWS Management Console, it is possible to create folders to group objects, and can create nested folders within multiple levels.

Here are the simple steps that you can get an Access Key ID and Secret Access Key for AWS accounts that allow you to access your AWS services.

First you need an AWS account, if you do not have one, create an account https://aws.amazon.com .
