Custom S3 Bucket
Prism devices now support the use and configuration of Amazon S3 buckets, enabling Prism devices to sync recorded files for both on-set and remote playback. Amazon S3 is an object storage service that stores data as objects within buckets, with each object uniquely identified by a key (or key name) within the bucket.
1. Open the Custom S3 Bucket section, then enter the S3 Bucket Name, Access and Secret Keys, Region, and Folder.
2. Once all the fields have been populated, click Link this Device.
DESCRIPTIONS
- Bucket Name: S3 organizes everything into top-level buckets, and the name must -exactly- match the one you want to use and have the IAM user associated with it by policy or by ACL.
- Access Keys and Secret Keys: Create an IAM user with AmazonS3FullAccess or similar permissions, and an associated access key and secret. For more information on Access and Secret Keys, click here. Your permissions may vary depending on your organizations policies and procedures.
- Region: Use the short name of the S3 bucket's region. For example, if the region you selected in S3 says "US West (N. California) us-west-1," the region is "us-west-1." For information about AWS regions click here.
- Folder: You can specify any folder name you like (or leave it blank). The folder will be created inside the bucket you specified above.
3. After the initial configuration, you can modify or change the bucket name, folder, or region without re-entering the keys by clicking Update Bucket.
4. To turn File Sync on or off, click the Recording tab to access the Sync with S3 Bucket toggle.
