Getting started

  1. Order an account. In the order you choose region, storage class, bucket name and whether the bucket gets Object Lock. The bucket is created during provisioning.
  2. Log in to the customer portal and create an access key.
  3. Point a client at the endpoint of your region, for example FRA2:
aws configure --profile zero-z3          # access key, secret key, region zero-fra2
aws --profile zero-z3 --endpoint-url https://fra.s3.zeroservices.eu s3 ls s3://<your-bucket>/
aws --profile zero-z3 --endpoint-url https://fra.s3.zeroservices.eu s3 cp file.txt s3://<your-bucket>/

Endpoints are path-style. Region names and endpoints: Regions. Settings for other tools: S3 clients.

New accounts carry a 1 TB quota for the first 60 days; open a ticket if you need it lifted earlier.
