Amazon S3™
The Amazon S3™ North Connector allows you to store files in Amazon S3™ (Simple Storage Service). It is ideal for long-term storage, data lakes, or integration with AWS services.
Example Use Cases:
- Data Lake Integration: Store historical data for analytics or compliance.
- Backup and Archiving: Securely archive data from OIBus to Amazon S3.
- AWS Ecosystem Integration: Use stored data with AWS services like Athena, Redshift, or Glue.
Specific Settings
Configure the following parameters to connect to your Amazon S3 bucket:
| Setting | Description | Example Value |

| Bucket | Name of the Amazon S3 bucket where files will be stored. | my-oibus-bucket |
| Region | AWS region where the bucket is located. | eu-west-3 |
| Folder | Specific folder within the bucket where files should be stored. | oibus/data |
| Access key | Authentication key for connecting to the Amazon S3 bucket. | AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE |
| Secret key | Secret key associated with the access key. | •••••••• |

| Setting | Description | Example Value |
|---|---|---|
| Proxy URL | URL of the proxy server. | http://proxy.example.com:8080 |

- IAM Permissions: Ensure the provided access key and secret key have the necessary permissions (e.g.,
s3:PutObject). - Monitoring: Monitor storage usage and costs in the AWS S3 console.
