    So let us get started with the\nfirst topic in hand,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What is Amazon Web Services?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Amazon Web Services as mentioned above is the gold standard or easily the best Cloud Service provider in the public cloud domain. It provides on-demand Cloud Computing services, that can be rented on metered usage and can be accessed across the globe by using the internet. Here Amazon Web Services takes care of managing and monitoring resources so one as a consumer does not have to invest too much time in doing these activities. It provides services in the following domains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Computation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Storage<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Databases<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Security<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Networking<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Monitoring<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Messaging<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Migration<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Machine
      Learning<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • DevOps<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • IoT, etc<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      It serves in 245+ countries\nand offers 250+ services. It provides following features,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Scalability<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Availability<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Metered
        Usage<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Flexibility<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Durability,
        etc<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        So this was about Amazon Web\nServices, let us now go ahead and understand how AWS Storage works,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        AWS Cloud Storage<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Cloud storage is nothing but an ability given to you as an individual to store your data on Cloud. Cloud storage lets you store data that can be,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Files<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Pictures<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Processing
          Data<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Messages<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Logs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Videos, etc<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Cloud storage lets you store data at an affordable price and lets you\ntake data backups ensuring your data is safe and secure on cloud. This data can\nbe processed making sure you can put your data to use on top of Cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Amazon Web Services provides\nplenty of services that help you store data safely in secure manner on AWS\nCloud Platform. It provides following storage services,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Amazon EBS<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Amazon S3<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Amazon EFS<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Amazon Glacier<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Amazon
            Storage Gateway<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Amazon
            Snowmobile<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Amazon
            Snowball etc,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon mostly classifies it storage in Block, Object and file kind of storage. Following image shows those kinds of storages.<\/p>\n\n\n

            \"AWS<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            EBS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Also known as Elastic Block Store\nit is storage that comes I block form. In order to use storage. You have to\nattach it to a host virtual machine. It is similar to a hard disk drive where\nthe storage can only be used when it is attached to a system or a laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            This is persistent storage\nthat means of the system goes down the storage will still be available and can\nbe used later when attached to a machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon EC2 Ephemeral Storage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            This is also block store but\nthis volume or storage goes away with the instance. That means if the instance\nis terminated the storage also gets deleted by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon Glacier<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            This is a type of archival\nstorage that means we store that data which is not used frequently. Say for\nexample data files that very rarely accessed. For example, hospital record,\nlike birth certificates. This storage is hence called as cold storage. Since\nthis data is not frequently used. We store it in cold storage something we\nrefrain from accessing every now and then. It is cheaper and hence affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            EFS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            EFS stands for Elastic File\nSystem and as the name suggests is used for Storing file data or managing file\nsystems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon Snowball<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            This storage is used for moving data physically. Think of it as more of a Pendrive or Hard disk drive that can be used to move your data physically from one data centre to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            What if the amount of data to be moved is large in size? In that case, we can use Amazon Snowmobile. Amazon Snowmobile lets us move heaps of data from one data centre to another physically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            In this article, we will be exploring Amazon S3 in detail. So let us go ahead and understand Amazon S3,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            What is Amazon S3?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon S3 is Cloud Storage offered by AWS. Amazon S3 support object storage and is hot storage in nature. Let us understand Cold and hot storage first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Cold Storage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            This is kind storage as the\nname suggests is cold or slow in nature. That means if you store your data\nhere, it will take 4-48 hours for you to retrieve your data at least.  This data storage is affordable or cheaper.\nIt is used by applications where data retrieval is not critical and data\nlatency won\u2019t impact the business in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Hot Storage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Hot storage is as you might\nhave guessed a storage that lets you retrieve data faster and is reliable in\nterms of processing data retrieval latency free. Amazon S3 is hot cloud storage\nand is hence costlier because you get faster data retrieval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Let us now go ahead and\nunderstand components of S3 storage service,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon S3 Buckets<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            In order to store your data in\nAmazon S3, you would need a container that can hold this data. These containers\nwith respect to Amazon S3 are known as Buckets<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon S3 Objects<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon S3 objects are nothing\nbut files that we store in the Amazon S3 bucket. Please not Amazon S3 is a key\nvalue store. You can store as many object these in these buckets you want.\nThese object can be as big as 5tb in size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Key:<\/strong> The name you assign to the\nobject<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Version: It is the version Id of a specific version of a file. We will explore this in detail some of the following topics. The version helps uniquely identify a particular object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Value and Metadata: <\/strong>Value is nothing but a concept we are trying to store. Whereas Metadata is the information about the data we are trying to store<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            With S3 we can create multiple\nbuckets in Different AWS regions and store or transfer our data there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            So this was about the\nfundamentals of S3. Let us now go ahead and understand what Versioning is and\nhow it works<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            What Is Amazon S3 Versioning?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            Data Backup and Data Recovery are two processes where companies invest a lot of money to preserve their data against unwanted hazards. While storing your data, you may have concerns where you may feel you want to avoid overwriting of files. In case if you do you may lose that data and it would be difficult for you then to backtrack and recover that data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            With Amazon S3 you have an option of versioning. That means you can maintain multiple copies of your data in the same bucket. To give you a simple example let us assume you have a file saved in Amazon S3. Now you go ahead and save the same file on Amazon again. You will get the latest copy of the file you stored. But if you have activated the versioning option in S3 then if you click on the object then all the previous versions of the file will be available and you can then backtrack to previous and use it or make whatever necessary changes you feel you need to implement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            This feature as mentioned\nabove is very handy when it comes to storing data and preserving all its\nversions. So this was about versioning in Amazon S3. Let us go ahead and\nunderstand another feature that helps us optimize costs for versioning and also\nlets us optimize costs in general. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Lifecycle Management In Amazon S3<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            S3 offers different pricing\ntiers, to users based on how frequently objects in the bucket are accessed. The\nfrequent is the access of objects, the more S3 charges you. That is\nunderstandable because the more frequently you access the data the faster\nretrieval is needed and hence AWS charges you more there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Amazon S3 offers three tiers, that is Frequently Accessed, Infrequently Accessed and Glacier. So in order to manage these objects better and ensure that they do not incur additional costs to us and we can continue to use them optimally, we can go ahead and apply lifecycle policy to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Lifecycle policies are nothing\nbut a set of rules that are applied to objects in a bucket. These are of two\ntypes,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Transition Actions: Transition\nactions tell you when objects transition to another storage class. For example,\nafter a certain period of time say 15-30 days you may want to transfer your\ndata Standard Infrequently accessed data group if your objects are not being\naccessed frequently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            The other type is,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Expiration Actions:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            There is a certain set of objects you would not want to use after a certain duration. So you can go ahead and define when you want these objects to expire. These are called as expiration actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            When to Use Lifecycle Management?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            • Logs uploaded to bucket whose requirement may be less than a week<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Objects that may not be accessed frequently after a limit. So moving them to Infrequently accessed storage<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Dealing with Archival Data that may not be accessed for a duration, ex: HealthCare records<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              This was about Amazon S3\nlifecycle management. Let us now go ahead and Cross Region Replication<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Cross-Region Replication<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

              To understand Cross-Region Replication. It is important we understand the concept of Availability first. With Amazon Web Services being a cloud platform, it is easy for people to question security. Because there has always been a myth that data on the cloud is not secure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              What people also expect is\nthat the data should always be available for people to use. To give you an\nexample, Netflix is a streaming company that streams video content across the\nglobe seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              One good feature of Netflix is\nthat it is always available and it is rare that audiences experience downtime.\nThis is because the data is available. How does Netflix achieve this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              They use replication capabilities that let Netflix replicate their data at different locations. That means if one of the data centres goes down, a copy of data is always available somewhere else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              When it comes to S3 people also expect the data to be always available. That means they want the data to be replicated at a location that is miles away, ensuring that if one the region goes down, a copy of it is always available at a distant location. This helps save data from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • Outages<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Natural
                Calamities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                Amazon S3 supports cross-region replication that ensures that our data is safe. Once you enable Cross-Region Replication with a particular bucket, its data gets replicated in a bucket that is located in some other region. To implement this feature, you need to ensure that versioning activated on your bucket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                By now we have successfully\nexplored some of the major concepts that Amazon S3 has to offer to us. Let us\nnow go ahead and implement some of the concepts we saw above, practically. To\ndo that you would be needing an Amazon Free Tier account. If you don\u2019t have one\njust go ahead and get one created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Create S3 File Versions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                In this demo, we will be creating multiple versions of a file and store those in a bucket. So let us get a start:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Step1:<\/strong> Go to AWS management Console\nand Open S3 Service. The following page should be on display, click on create\nbucket.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step2:<\/strong> Enter a bucket name that is\nunique. And click on next.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step3: <\/strong>You activate versioning right\naway or may keep it for later as well.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step4:<\/strong> Bucket policy tab lets you\ndecide what access you for the bucket. By default, all public access to bucket\nis blocked. So let that be so and click on Next<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step5: <\/strong>Overlook all the settings at a\nglance and click on create bucket<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step6: <\/strong>Open the bucket and click on\nproperties.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step7:<\/strong> Select versioning and enable\nit. And go back to the bucket we created.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step8:<\/strong> Click on Upload and upload a\nfile.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step9: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step10: <\/strong>Then go ahead and upload the same file again. You will the time of the file has changed but the name of the file remains the same.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step 11:<\/strong> Select the file and select\nthe option show versions. <\/p>\n\n\n

                \"S3<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step 12:<\/strong> Both versions will be\ndisplayed and you have the option of working or choosing one. This is what versioning\nlets you do. Hence we have successfully enabled versioning on our bucket.<\/p>\n\n\n

                \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
