Discover the ultimate guide to building your own AWS S3-like storage system with S3 From Scratch. This project provides a comprehensive walkthrough on how to create a fully functional, open-source solution, enabling users to deploy their own scalable storage without relying on cloud providers like AWS or GCP.

Key Features:

• Automated Bucket Deployment: Streamline the process with automation for creating and managing S3 buckets seamlessly.
• Dynamic Resource Scaling: Implement a system that allows for dynamically expanding volumes, ensuring your storage solution grows with your needs.
• Secure Infrastructure: Design your storage solution with security at its core, safeguarding data with top-notch practices.

Technical Insights:

Gain insights into the technical framework of the project:

• Node Architecture: Utilize Raspberry Pi units equipped with SSDs to create an efficient enterprise-grade compute unit, ideal for bulk operations.
• Custom Console: Engage directly with your infrastructure through a tailored console set-up, designed for ease of use and management.
• Robust API: Interact programmatically with your storage service using the exemplified API that mimics AWS functionalities.

Examples:

Here's a quick JavaScript snippet showcasing how to interact with the service using the @aws-sdk/client-s3:

const { S3Client, ListObjectsV2Command, PutObjectCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-s3");

const Bucket = 'BUCKET_NAME_HERE';
const Namespace = 'NAMESPACE_HERE';
const accessKeyId = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
const secretAccessKey = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";

(async function () {
    const client = new S3Client({
        region: 'us-west-2',
        endpoint: `https://${Bucket}.${Namespace}.s3.anthonybudd.io`,
        forcePathStyle: true,
        sslEnabled: true,
        credentials: {
            accessKeyId,
            secretAccessKey
        },
    });

    const Key = `${Date.now().toString()}.txt`;
    await client.send(new PutObjectCommand({
        Bucket,
        Key,
        Body: `The time now is ${new Date().toLocaleString()}`,
        ACL: 'public-read',
        ContentType: 'text/plain',
    }));
    console.log(`New object successfully written to: ${Bucket}://${Key}\n`);

    const { Contents } = await client.send(new ListObjectsV2Command({ Bucket }));
    console.log("Bucket Contents:");
    console.log(Contents.map(({ Key }) => Key).join("\n"));
})();
