About S3 interface for MSDP

S3 is a popular storage interface in the cloud. It can seamlessly work with the cloud native applications. S3 interface for MSDP provides S3 APIs in MSDP server. The S3 interface for MSDP is compatible with Amazon S3 cloud Storage service. It supports most of the commonly used S3 APIs such as create bucket, delete bucket, store object, retrieve object, list object, delete object, multiipart upload, and so on.

S3 interface for MSDP also supports object versioning, IAM, and identity-based policy. It uses snowball-auto-extract to support small objects batch upload.

S3 interface for MSDP can be configured on MSDP build-your-own (BYO) server, Flex appliance, Flex WORM, and NetBackup on AKS.

For S3 interface for MSDP configuration on Flex appliance, login to the Flex media server and See Configuring S3 interface for MSDP on MSDP build-your-own (BYO) server.

For S3 interface for MSDP configuration on Flex WORM, See Managing S3 service from the deduplication shell.

For S3 interface for MSDP configuration on NetBackup on AKS, see the Using S3 service in MSDP Scaleout topic of NetBackup Deployment Guide for Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS) Cluster document.
