Guides - Create a Bucket
S3-compatible Linode Object Storage makes it easy and more affordable to manage unstructured data such as content assets, as well as sophisticated and data-intensive storage challenges around artificial intelligence and machine learning.
The Cloud Manager provides a web interface for creating buckets. To create a bucket:
If you have not already, log into the Linode Cloud Manager.
Click the Object Storage link in the sidebar, and then click Add a Bucket.
If you have not created an access key or a bucket before, you are prompted to enable Object Storage.
The Create a Bucket menu appears.
Add a label for the bucket. See the Bucket Name section for rules on naming the bucket.
Choose a region (cluster) for the bucket to reside in. See the Availability section on the Object Storage Overview page for a list of available regions.
Note
A cluster is defined as all buckets hosted by a unique URL; for example:us-east-1.linodeobjects.com
,ap-south-1.linodeobjects.com
, oreu-central-1.linodeobjects.com
.Click Submit. You are now ready to upload objects to the bucket.
