Thank you Satya! Really appreciate the support. Welcome to the channel!

nice video, to sum up . In s3 we have regions to select( for faster uploading, downloading), permission at (bucket or object level), logs (bucket or object level), events(will send notifications to admin, if any event occur). you art of teaching is so simple to understand. Thanks for the video.

great video for beginners. One typo in the video- S3 actually stands for Simple Storage Service.

[@manchristiano]

Concepts well explained, thanks. Please I need the nodejs endpoints to update and delete image files on S3.

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Christian, what do you mean by endpoints? Do you mean root endpoints for the services?

[@AlvinC-sz3li]

@@BeABetterDev Probably VPC endpoint, that he can use to access the bucket from the same VPC to avoid any public network.

[@TheRajpoojari]

Nice illistrution

[@BeABetterDev]

Thanks Basu!

[@KleberJS]

Thank you for share your knowledge with us and congratulation, you are so good in teaching. I think is interesting if you could make a example with S3 + an event Lambda.

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Kleber, thanks for the kind words. Here is a video I have on S3 PUT Notification + Lambda trigger: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpDVg5-kiNySa9U . I think you may enjoy it. Thanks, Daniel.

[@aichak.2216]

Great tutorial!!

[@BeABetterDev]

Thanks Aicha!

[@TommyTompkins]

Great video, but how do you access the bucket from a web application?

[@BeABetterDev]

Hey Tommy, You would need to make your bucket public and then perform a simple GET request using your object's public URL. Hope this helps.

[@edgar-mmxxiii]

Simply put it is just a file server. If I will host a big website with high traffic, I can create 3 servers: one for database, one for the web server and one for file server. I just want to make things simple. Terminilogies can really confuse.

[@synthoelectro]

What types of files can you store, AIFF files for a business end situation? These will be paid for by clients, and sent from storage direct to their save button upon pay.

[@adityaverma2492]

Region should be selected based on proximity to Host Or proximity to End User who would be accessing the bucket content?

[@stevetaylor4990]

This is great, thanks. Is there a process for uploading files via an API rather than using the GUI?

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Steven, Absolutely! Check out S3's PutObject API: docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_PutObject.html

[@rexsam3134]

Do you have any videos on how application code are uploaded to S3 which will be picked up by by the CiCD pipeline to get deployed on any container?

[@mikegilmore4921]

Great video. I am using Google Drive public link, but I have issues playing the links on iOS devices. Sometimes the public links play and sometimes not. Do you know whether using S3 storage is better and more stable across different operation systems and devices compared to Google Drive? You answer is much appreaciated.

How to handle prod non prod objects in aws s3 ?

[@franciscosunworld]

I did upload two files and none of the worked...But thanks any way for the video

[@insupport9239]

@24:56 Replication - Is this different than the backups that AWS is doing with our data. You said 99.999999% guaranteed backups, this is just like you said, just in case you need to ACCESS this data from different regions.

[@sdanjo02]

how can get an access key system for our company of about 3,000 employees in African?

[@insupport9239]

Do you have an updated video for @19:53 ? It appears AWS has Event Notification and now CloudTrail Data Events. I'd like to know the difference.

[@josnajose7187]

Hi Is it possible to find most commonly used words from customer call in Amazon connect. I can analyze the call one by one after each call from the call recordings. I want to get the most commonly used words from all the call (after finish a bunch of call) .Can all the recordings in the s3 bucket be analyzed together?. Please help

[@AndyYangXD]

Hi sir, does this AWS S3 perform like Dropbox file storage/sharing? Can we use aws S3 from our local File Explorer ?

[@RotterStudios]

If I have scripts for a website would i just use this or would i need to get a VPS from amazon for the website and then use S3’s for storage for the data of users?

[@jacarecarapau9302]

Is it possible to add a virtual disk with bitlocker encryption in s3?

[@Recovering_Californian]

I have an EC2 instance used for my web application (I use Route 53 for the app's DNS). I also have a S3 bucket. I want to allow bucket access (upload & download) ONLY from my web application. Do you have a video for this?

[@barbarahorsley5989]

If I "Block all Public Access" does that mean people who I give a link to my stored file won't be able to read and download it? Thank you!

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Barbara, thats correct! The link will not be able to access the content.

[@barbarahorsley5989]

@@BeABetterDev Thank you for your reply! I'm looking to allow access just to those I give the link to through my online course website. Have you done a tutorial on how to do that?

[@angelfmusic]

If I launch a membership site where paying members get access to tutorial videos, can I save the videos on S3? Each video will average about 10 minutes in length.

[@BeABetterDev]

This sounds like a great reason to use S3!

[@omrihorowitz]

Stands for Simple Storage Service not Simple Storage Solution :p but super appreciate the video nonetheless

[@BeABetterDev]

Thanks Omri! I'm embarrassed that I made such a mistake so early on in the video haha.

[@ianaustria8868]

Does it incur cost by simply checking your S3 objects in aws console? I'm on a free tier where I don't upload any new objects but there checking the billing there are new requests

[@SuePorter]

This is great where you started from. I'm trying to just upload free lead magnets, and they don't even give Arizona, where I live, as a region to choose from. Then in looking for instructions as to how to change the region, since I chose the only one that was close, I can't figure out a thing they're saying to do. I've looked around for 2 days and I'm beyond frustrated! Any suggestions?

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Sue, S3 is global. That means that it can be accessed from any location without having to specify the region/data center the data is actually stored in. However, when you create your bucket, you ARE allowed to pick the data center it is stored in for performance purposes. If you REALLY want to change the region, I believe the only way to do that is to delete the bucket and recreate it in the desired region. Generally its a good idea to pick whichever one is geographically closest to you. Further, 'Selecting Region' in a traditional sense is a bit redundant for S3. If you look at the top right tab when on the S3 console and click the 'Global' dropdown, you can see 'S3 does not require region selection.' Hope this helps.

[@jolajojo5884]

Hi, do you know if linking to a pdf hosted on AWS S3 will pass page rank from my website? Ie. should it be in robots or have a 'nofollow'. I link to a pdf data sheet on every page so as you can imagine with 3000 product pages it could be very bad. Thank you.

[@roronoa_d_law1075]

I configured the access to my bucket to public but evrytime I add files, I need to specifically make them public each, either way they are not accessible.

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi, I recently created a video on Public Access using S3. You can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWK3pmOvgNJ3gbc

[@lenkaslavickova8567]

Hi, sorry for the basic question, but I'm a little lost. Can I share documents (or anything) with someone who does not have an AWS account? I need to share a virtual tour with colleagues who are not AWS users. Or how to do it. I appreciate any advice! Thank you!

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Lenka, yes you can definitely share them! You can make your S3 bucket public so anyone with a link can access the files via a URL.

[@lenkaslavickova8567]

@@BeABetterDev Thank you for your response! Where can I change blocking public access? Am I right that if I don't change this setting, I can only share with AWS users? "The block public access settings turned on for this bucket prevent granting public access."

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Lenka. Here is a great guide that shows you how to change your bucket's access policy to Public: docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/user-guide/block-public-access-bucket.html . If you leave it on default settings, the bucket's contents are actually only visible to you. Other AWS users will not be able to access it. However changing it to public makes anyone able to access it. Hope this helps!

[@BeABetterDev]

I am actually going to make a video on this topic this week. Thanks for bringing this up Lenka and stay tuned!
