The biggest challenge - Finding, storing and managing All ofYour data

13. I need more
storage
Before Amazon S3
Running applications, delivering contents to customers, hosting high traffic websites or backing up emails and other files
require a lot of storage
Storage

14. Before Amazon S3
Maintaining your own repository is expensive and time consuming
Factors that make a repository expensive
and time consuming are:
• To purchase hardware and software
components
• Hiring a team of experts for
maintenance
• Lack of scalability based on your
requirements
• Data security requirements

25. Object & Bucket in Amazon S3
An object consists of data, key(assigned name) and metadata
A bucket stores objects
When data is added to the bucket, Amazon S3 creates a unique version ID and allocates it to the object
Object: folder/Penguins.jpg
Bucket: simplilearn
Link Address: https://s3.amazonaws.com/simplilearn/folder/Penguins.jpg
For Example:
Key(name)
Version ID

26. How does Amazon S3 work

27. How does Amazon S3 work
 A user creates a ‘Bucket’
 When a bucket is created, the user will specify the region in which the bucket should be deployed

28. How does Amazon S3 work
 When files are uploaded to the bucket, the user will specify the type of S3 storage class to be used for those specific
objects
 Later, users can define features to the bucket like bucket policy, lifecycle policies, versioning control etc.

38. Features of Amazon S3

39. Features - Lifecycle management
In lifecycle management, Amazon S3 applies a set of rules that define actions to a group of objects
With lifecycle management, you can manage and store your
objects cost effectively

40. Features - Lifecycle management
There are two types of actions
 Transition actions
 Expiration actions
In lifecycle management, Amazon S3 applies a set of rules that define actions to a group of objects

41. Features - Lifecycle management
With this action,You can choose to move objects
to another storage class
 Transition actions
 Expiration actions
In lifecycle management, Amazon S3 applies a set of rules that define actions to a group of objects

42. Features - Lifecycle management
S3 standard S3 infrequent access Glacier
You can configure S3 to move your data between various storage classes on a defined schedule
With this action,You can choose to move objects
to another storage class

43. Features - Lifecycle management
For example
S3 standard S3 infrequent access Glacier
30 days
You can configure S3 to move your data between various storage classes on a defined schedule
Suppose you have not used your
files frequently for 30 days, then it
will be moved to infrequent
access…
Transition actions

44. Features - Lifecycle management
S3 standard S3 infrequent access Glacier
30 days 60 days
… and after 60 days, it is moved
to Glacier
You can configure S3 to move your data between various storage classes on a defined schedule
Transition actions

45. Features - Lifecycle management
This Lifecycle management helps you to
automatically migrate your data to lower cost
storage as your data ages

30 days 60 days
You can configure S3 to move your data between various storage classes on a defined schedule
Transition actions
… and after 60 days, it is moved
to Glacier

46. Features - Lifecycle management
 Transition actions
 Expiration actions
Here, S3 removes all the objects in the bucket
When a specified date or time period in the
object's lifetime is reached
In Lifecycle management, Amazon S3 applies set of rules to a group of objects

47. Features - Bucket policy
 Bucket policy is an IAM policy where you can allow and deny permission to your Amazon S3 resources
 With bucket policy, you also define security rules that apply to more than one file within a bucket
 For example: If you do not want a user to access the “Simplilearn” bucket, then with the help of JSON
script you can set permissions
Result:
Access denied
User

48. Features - Data Protection
 Amazon S3 provides IT teams a highly durable, protected and scalable infrastructure designed for
object storage
Durable
Scalable
Protected

49. Features - Data Protection
 Amazon S3 provides IT teams a highly durable, protected and scalable infrastructure designed
for object storage
 Amazon S3 protects your data using 2 methods:
 Data Encryption and
 Versioning
Data encryption Versioning

50. Features - Data Encryption
 It refers to protection of data while it’s being transmitted and at rest
 Data Encryption can happen in two ways:
Client-Side Encryption - Data encryption at rest
Server-Side Encryption - Data encryption in motion

51. Features - Versioning
In one bucket, you can have same
key name but different version ids
 It can be utilized to preserve, recover and restore early versions of every object you store in your
Amazon S3 bucket
 Unintentional erase or overwriting of objects can be easily regained with versioning
For Example:
Key:Photo.png
(version:012345)
Key:Photo.png
(version:012346)

52. Features - Cross-Region Replication
Note: Versioning must be turned on to enable CRR
Replication of data
Region1 Region2
Cross-Region Replication provides automatic copying of every object uploaded to your buckets
(source bucket and destination bucket) in different AWS regions

53. Features - Transfer Acceleration
 It enables fast, easy and secure transfers of files over long distances between your client and S3
bucket
 The edge locations around the world provided by Amazon CloudFront are taken advantage by
transfer acceleration
 It works via carrying data over an optimized network bridge that keeps running between the AWS
Edge Location (closest region to your clients) and your Amazon S3 bucket
Data is moved over an
optimized path

CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN)
service that securely transfers data to your
preferred destination with a high transfer
