Creating a Bucket

Functions

This operation is used to create a bucket with a specified name.

Note
  • By default, a user can have a maximum of 100 buckets.
  • The name of a deleted bucket can be reused for a bucket or a parallel file system at least 30 minutes after the deletion.
  • When creating a bucket in OBS, you can enable the multi-AZ mode for the bucket or disable it. With the multi-AZ mode disabled, data in a bucket is stored in a single AZ by default. With the multi-AZ mode enabled, data in a bucket is stored redundantly in multiple AZs, improving reliability. However, buckets created before are still in the single AZ mode.
  • You can enable WORM when you create a bucket. After WORM is enabled, you can configure retention policies for objects you upload to the bucket. For more information, see Configuring a Default WORM Policy for a Bucket. When you create a bucket with WORM enabled, OBS automatically enables versioning for the bucket, which cannot be suspended. When you create a parallel file system, you cannot enable WORM for it.

A bucket name must be unique in OBS. If a user creates a bucket with the same name as that of an existing bucket under the same account and in the same region, a 200 code (indicating success) is returned. In scenarios other than the preceding one, the request for creating a bucket with the same name as that of an existing one will receive the 409 code (indicating that a namesake bucket already exists). To set an access control policy for the bucket to be created, you can add the x-obs-acl parameter to request headers.

Storage Class

You can create buckets with different storage classes. The x-obs-storage-class header in a bucket creation request specifies the bucket's storage class. If you do not specify a storage class when you upload an object to the bucket, the object inherits the storage class of the bucket. The storage class options are as follows: STANDARD (Standard), WARM (Warm), COLD (Cold). If the x-obs-storage-class header is not in the request, a Standard bucket will be created.

If the storage class of an object is not specified when it is uploaded to a bucket (see Uploading an Object - PUT), the object will be stored in the default storage class of the bucket.

  • OBS Standard features low access latency and high throughput. It is most suitable for storing frequently accessed (multiple times per month) hot files. Potential application scenarios include big data, mobile applications, trending videos, and social media images.
  • OBS Warm storage class is suitable for storing data that is infrequently accessed (less than 12 times a year) yet has quick response requirements. Potential application scenarios include file synchronization or sharing and enterprise backup. It provides the same durability, access latency, and throughput as the Standard storage class but at a lower price. However, the Warm storage class has lower availability than the Standard one.
  • OBS Cold storage class is applicable to archiving rarely-accessed (averagely once a year) data. The application scenarios include data archiving and long-term data retention for backup. The Cold storage class is secure, durable, and inexpensive, which can replace tape libraries. However, the low cost comes at the cost of minutes to hours needed to restore data from the Cold storage class.

Request Parameters

This request contains no parameters.

Request Headers

The operation message header is the same as that of a common request. For details, see Table 3. However, this request can contain additional headers. The following table describes the additional headers for this request.

Table 1 Additional request headers

Header

Type

Mandatory (Yes/No)

Description

x-obs-acl

String

No

Explanation:

When creating a bucket, you can use this parameter to set a pre-defined ACL.

Value range:

  • private: A bucket or an object can be accessed only by its owner.
  • public-read: If this permission is granted on a bucket, anyone can read the object list, multipart uploads, and bucket metadata.
  • public-read-write: If this permission is granted on a bucket, anyone can obtain the object list, multipart tasks, and metadata, and can upload or delete objects, initiate multipart upload tasks, upload parts, assemble parts, copy parts, and cancel multipart upload tasks.
  • public-read-delivered: If this permission is set for a bucket, everyone can obtain the object list, multipart uploads, and bucket metadata in the bucket, and obtain the content and metadata of the objects in the bucket.
  • public-read-write-delivered: If this permission is set for a bucket, everyone can obtain the object list in the bucket, multipart uploads in the bucket, and metadata of the bucket; upload and delete objects; initiate multipart uploads; upload, assemble, and copy parts; cancel multipart uploads; and obtain content and metadata of objects in the bucket.
  • bucket-owner-full-control: If this permission is granted on an object, only the bucket and object owners have the full control over the object.

    By default, if you upload an object to a bucket of any other user, the bucket owner does not have the permissions on your object. After you grant this policy to the bucket owner, the bucket owner can have full control over your object.

    For example, if user A uploads object x to user B's bucket, user B does not have the control over object x. If user A sets the bucket-owner-full-control policy for object x, user B then has the control over object x.

Default value:

private

x-obs-storage-class

String

No

Explanation:

When creating a bucket, you can add this header to set the default storage class for the bucket.

Value range:

  • STANDARD (Standard storage)
  • WARM (Warm storage)
  • COLD (Cold storage)

Default value:

STANDARD

x-obs-grant-read
