Properties

Overview

This section outlines key properties of an S3 bucket that can be retrieved and modified, depending on the use case. Each bucket in S3 has the following attributes:

Explanation of Key Properties:

  • Owner: This indicates the AWS account or user that owns the bucket.

  • ServersideEncryption: Shows whether server-side encryption is enabled (true for enabled, false for disabled). When encryption is enabled, all objects are encrypted at rest in the bucket. For more information, see the AWS documentation on Server-Side Encryption.

  • BucketRequestPayment: Defines who pays for requests and data transfer costs. If set to false, the bucket owner pays for the costs. If true, the requester (the one making requests to the bucket) will pay for the costs.
