Creating an AWS S3 Bucket

Important: This procedure is optional and is required only if you want to use AWS S3 for storing the policy snapshot during static deployment, instead of the persistent volume.

To create an AWS S3 bucket:

1. Login to the AWS environment.

2. Navigate to Services.

   A list of AWS services appears.

3. In Storage, click S3.

   The S3 buckets screen appears.

4. Click Create bucket.

   The Create bucket screen appears.

5. In the General configuration screen, specify the following details.

   1. In the Bucket name field, enter a unique name for the bucket.

   2. In the AWS Region field, choose the same region in which you want to create your EC2 instance.

   If you want to configure your bucket or set any specific permissions, then you can specify the required values in the remaining sections of the screen. Otherwise, you can go directly to the next step to create a bucket.

6. Click Create bucket.

   The bucket is created.
