Terminologies used in AWS S3

• Object: In AWS S3, an object means a simple entity stored in a bucket that might be either a file, text, or any other sort of data.
• Bucket: All objects in S3 are stored within a bucket, which serves as the basic resource for this service, and therefore containers for those items within S3 are called buckets.
• Key: A unique name within a bucket identifying an object.
• Version ID: The version of the object. S3 supports versioning.
• Storage Classes: Different categories of storage provided by S3, such as Standard, Intelligent-Tiering, Glacier, etc.

The Amazon Web Services (AWS) Simple Storage Service (S3) is a scalable object storage service that allows you to store and retrieve any amount of data at any time. The AWS SDK for JavaScript in Node.js provides the getObject method, which can be used to download objects from S3.

This article will show you how to deploy “getObject:aws s3” through the AWS Management Console and AWS CLI. Additionally, this article will discuss how to retrieve the object when it is stored under different storage classes.
