What is S3 Storage and How to Use It

Understand S3-compatible object storage: what it is, how buckets and access keys work, and how to store backups, media and files in Azerbaijan.

What is Object Storage?

Object storage is a way to store files in the cloud. You create "buckets", upload objects (files), and access them via API. It scales infinitely.

What Does S3-Compatible Mean?

Any tool, SDK, or software that works with Amazon S3 also works with Cloudraft storage. Libraries like boto3, aws-sdk, and tools like s3cmd all work.

Common Use Cases

Database backups, website assets, application logs, static site hosting, disaster recovery — any unstructured data.

Log in to app.cloudraft.net, navigate to S3 Storage, create a bucket, generate access keys, and start uploading.
