Create a bucket

Create an S3 bucket, choose a plan and visibility, and restore from another bucket.

Before you start

Your profile must be complete, and your balance must cover the first month.

Create a bucket

  1. Open Buckets from the Object Storage menu.
  2. Click Create Bucket.
  3. Choose a Location.
  4. Choose the Visibility:
  • Private: only you (or authorized organization members) can access the files with credentials.
  • Public: anyone can read the bucket files.
  1. Choose a Bucket Plan. The capacity and monthly price are shown in the same section.
  2. Enter a Bucket name.
  3. Optionally enable Restore data from another bucket.
  4. Review the summary and click Create.
After creation, the bucket appears in the bucket list.

Bucket name rules

  • Between 3 and 63 characters.
  • Lowercase English letters (a-z), numbers, dots, and hyphens only.
  • Start and end with a letter or number.
  • No consecutive dots or a dot next to a hyphen.
  • The name cannot look like an IP address.
  • The name must be unique.

Restore from another bucket

If you enable Restore data from another bucket, enter:
  • Provider
  • Region
  • Source Bucket name
  • Endpoint URL
  • Access Key
  • Secret Key
The source data must fit the selected plan. Lexoya creates a new bucket and restores the data into it.

Traffic and capacity

  • Bucket traffic is Unlimited (Fair).
  • The download-to-upload ratio is 1:10.
  • The bucket capacity is the selected plan size. Change the plan to get more capacity.
Use a Public bucket only for public files. Choose Private for sensitive data.
