Amazon S3 is an object storage service offering scalability, data availability, security, and performance. It allows storing and retrieving data from anywhere at any time. S3 provides management features for data optimization and access control. Scalability is virtually unlimited, with a 5 TB maximum object size. Creating an S3 bucket involves choosing a name and configuring settings like object ownership and encryption. Uploading a file is straightforward within the AWS Management Console. Generating a pre-signed URL enables temporary access to uploaded files. The URL's time limit is customizable, for example, to two minutes. After the time limit expires, the pre-signed URL becomes invalid. This tutorial demonstrates creating a bucket, uploading a file, and generating a temporary access URL. The process is designed for ease of understanding.
