How to Access an Uploaded File in Object Storage: Download or view a file stored in an object storage bucket. For public buckets, you can also reach files through a direct URL without authentication.
How to Access Buckets via FTP, FTPS, or SFTP: Stand up an Ubuntu gateway VM that mounts a Quake AI bucket with s3fs, then serve that mount over SFTP, FTPS, or FTP for clients that cannot speak S3.
How to Configure Server-side Encryption: Use Server-Side Encryption with Customer-Provided Keys (SSE-C) to encrypt an object with a 256-bit key that you manage. Quake AI Object Storage applies AES-256 encryption and requires the same key for...
How to Create a Folder in an Object Storage Bucket: Create a logical folder (prefix) within an object storage bucket to organize objects. Folders in object storage are not real directories; they are a naming convention that the console and many clients...
How to Create an Object Storage Bucket: Create an object storage bucket (also called a container) to store files, backups, and other unstructured data. Bucket names must be unique within your project and cannot be changed after creation.
How to Create S3 Credentials: Generate EC2-compatible (S3) credentials to access Quake AI Object Storage using S3-compatible tools such as s3cmd, the AWS CLI, rclone, and language SDKs like boto3. S3 credentials are separate from...
How to Enable Versioning on an Object Storage Bucket: Enable versioning on an object storage bucket to retain all versions of each object. Versioning protects against accidental overwrites and deletions; you can restore any previous version at any time.
How to Grant Access Control on an Object Storage Bucket: Control who can read from and write to an object storage bucket. Quake AI supports two levels of access control:
How to Host a Static Site on Object Storage: Serve HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and image files from a Quake AI object storage bucket. For a custom domain or HTTPS at the edge, put a CDN in front of the bucket and point your domain at the CDN.
How to Mount S3 Storage on Windows, Macos, and Linux: Mount a Quake AI Object Storage bucket as a local drive or filesystem with rclone. You can then browse, read, and write objects through your operating system's file tools.
How to Upload a File to an Object Storage Bucket: Upload a file to a bucket (container) in Quake AI Object Storage. The file becomes an object addressable by its key (the path within the bucket).
How to Use Cloudfront with Object Storage Buckets: For Cloudflare, Bunny.net, Fastly, and other CDN providers, start with How to put a CDN in front of a Quake AI workload. This guide covers AWS CloudFront.
