Amazon S3 Compatibility
Leaseweb provides AWS S3 compatibility for the Object Storage.
Leaseweb Object Storage comes with a S3 Compatible API. You can use any S3 compatible tool to access the Object Storage.
At the moment, Object Storage is available in 6 regions. The available endpoints for the S3 API are:
| Region | Endpoint |
|---|---|
| nl-01 | https://nl.object-storage.io |
| de-01 | https://de.object-storage.io |
| uk-01 | https://uk.object-storage.io |
| us-01 | https://us.object-storage.io |
| ca-01 | https://ca.object-storage.io |
| sg-01 | https://sg.object-storage.io |
Getting Started – Access Keys and User Setup
- Log into the Leaseweb Customer Portal and navigate to the Object Storage section to view your active pack(s).
- Choose the pack, then select
Access Keystab to create S3 access key credentials. You may create keys for the Root user or other users you have defined. - Once an access key is created, download or copy the credentials immediately. After confirmation you will not be able to view the secret again.
- Set up your S3-compatible client (such as s3cmd, AWS CLI, or equivalent) to use the endpoint appropriate to your region, together with your Access Key ID and Secret.
- Use the client to create buckets, upload, list and download objects via the standard S3 API operations.
Users and Groups (Optional Management)
- To create a new group, open the Groups tab, provide a Display Name and Unique Name, and attach an S3 Group Policy.
- To create a new user, open the Users tab, provide full name and username, optionally assign to a group, then create a user.
- To delete a group or user use the Delete option, acknowledging the system warning.
Security and Durability
Leaseweb stores data across multiple availability zones within each region to provide high durability and availability guarantees. The system supports standard S3 credentials and policies.
Use Cases
This S3-compatible storage is ideal for unstructured data use cases such as backup, archive, web content, large data sets for analytics or any service that uses S3 APIs.
