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
- Open Buckets from the Object Storage menu.
- Click Create Bucket.
- Choose a Location.
- Choose the Visibility:
- Private: only you (or authorized organization members) can access the files with credentials.
- Public: anyone can read the bucket files.
- Choose a Bucket Plan. The capacity and monthly price are shown in the same section.
- Enter a Bucket name.
- Optionally enable Restore data from another bucket.
- 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.
