Integrate Amazon S3 with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Amazon S3

Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service. is an online storage web service offered by Amazon Web Services. It is designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers. With S3, developers do not have to think about the details of storage, such as infrastructure. Developers can focus on their applications and services that use AWS.

Amazon S3 has two major features:

• Object Storage. A key/value store with no file system abstraction layer. It allows uploading any data objects. The only limit on the number of objects is the maximum number allowed per bucket. For more information about object storage, refer to this page on Amazon’s website.
• Reduced Redundancy Storage. It provides a low-cost alternative to standard S3 storage for durable data archiving and backup. The storage class uses standard S3 APIs and offers 4 nines durability of objects over a given year, but also reduces the redundancy of data 50% from the normal 11 9’s redundancy used by other S3 classes. For more information about Reduced Redundancy Storage, refer to this page on Amazon’s website.
