An object can be any kind of file: a text file, a photo, a video, and so forth. A folder can contain various objects. For more information on Buckets and Objects and Folders, see http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/Introduction.html.
Step 3: Click Create Bucket in the Buckets pane. And the Create a Bucket dialog box appears.
Step 4: Enter a bucket name in Bucket Name.
Step 5: Select a region from the Region dropdown list box.
Step 6: Click Create.
An empty bucket is created and is displayed in the Buckets pane. You can now upload file packages by following instructions in the section called “Upload file packages”.
