AWS S3 Datastore Support

· One min read

Customers with AWS CloudBender regions can now configure datastores that directly mount S3 buckets for regional workload use.

To configure, go to the Region Dashboard and click Add on the Datastores toolbar. For the datastore type, select S3. Enter the bucket name as the URI and the bucket subpath in the Root field (or enter '/' for the entire bucket). Specify the full Role ARN of an AWS role with access to the bucket in the Role field. Once the Datastore is created, you can create Datasets, Models, or Checkpoints based on the s3 bucket.

warning

It is not recommended to use the S3 datastore for Volumes. The S3 mount is not completely POSIX compliant. Use the EBS datastore instead.
