How-to guides

Users can create the service by entering the required Object Storage information and selecting detailed options through the Samsung Cloud Platform Console.

Create Authentication Key

To create and use the Object Storage service in the Samsung Cloud Platform Console, you need to generate an authentication key in advance.

Create an authentication key My Menu > My Info. Authentication key management > Authentication key creation can be created at . For more details, refer to IAM > 인증키 생성하기.

Reference
  • The authentication keys (Access Key, Secret Key) are used when authenticating Amazon S3 tools.
  • The authentication key is used not only for Object Storage but also for authentication in OpenAPI and CLI.
  • You can generate up to two authentication keys.
Caution
  • If the authentication key expires, access to the Object Storage service will be restricted. * Verify the authentication key’s expiration period in advance to ensure smooth service.
  • If you disable the authentication key, access permissions to the Object Storage service will be restricted.

Object Storage Configure Encryption

You can configure it to encrypt data stored in the bucket. After configuring bucket encryption, the encryption settings are applied to data uploaded thereafter. When encryption is used, the SSE‑S3 encryption key method and the AES256 encryption algorithm are applied.

Reference
Object Storage’s bucket encryption can provide two options (SSE-S3/SSE-KMS). SSE‑S3 is server‑side encryption (SSE‑S3) that uses Amazon S3 managed keys. SSE-KMS is server-side encryption (SSE-KMS) that uses Key Management Service (KMS) keys.
In this service, server-side encryption (SSE-S3) using Amazon S3 managed keys is released as the default method, and server-side encryption (SSE-KMS) using Key Management Service (KMS) keys will be provided later according to the service roadmap.

Notice

If there is data saved before the bucket encryption was configured, the encryption setting will not be applied.

  • If you re-upload the file, the encryption will be applied.
  • To set encryption for existing data, you need to re‑upload it.

Object Storage To use bucket encryption, follow these steps.

  1. All Services > Storage > Object Storage Click the menu. 1. Navigate to the Service Home page of Object Storage.
  2. On the Service Home page, click the Object Storage menu. 2. Go to the Object Storage List page.
  3. Object Storage List On the page, click the resource (bucket) to use encryption. 3. Navigate to the Object Storage Details page.
  4. On the Object Storage Details page, verify that encryption is disabled.
  5. Encryption is Unused, click the Edit button. Encryption Edit Popup opens.
  6. After checking use for encryption, click the confirm button.

Terminate Object Storage

You can cancel unused Object Storage to reduce operating costs. However, if you terminate the service, the currently operating service may be stopped immediately, so you should proceed with the termination only after fully considering the impact that may arise from the service interruption.

Caution
  • Service termination is possible for buckets with no stored data.
  • If a file is being uploaded, the upload will be canceled.
  • Please be careful, as data cannot be recovered after deletion.

To cancel Object Storage, follow these steps.

  1. Click the All Services > Storage > Object Storage menu. 1. Navigate to the Service Home page of Object Storage.
  2. On the Service Home page, click the Object Storage menu. 2. Object Storage list Go to the page.
  3. On the Object Storage List page, select the resource (bucket) to terminate, and click the Terminate Service button.
  4. Enter the bucket name to confirm termination.
  5. If you entered the Bucket name correctly, the Confirm button will be enabled. 5. Click the Confirm button.
  6. When the termination is complete, check on the Object Storage List page whether the resource has been terminated.
