S3 Protocol

The S3 protocol refers to Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), a cloud-based platform for storing and retrieving large amounts of data. It works like a virtual hard drive accessible over the internet, allowing users and applications to upload, download, and manage files securely and reliably. S3 organizes data into buckets, which are containers for files called objects. Its protocol uses standard web protocols, enabling seamless integration with various systems while ensuring high availability, durability, and scalability for data storage needs.
