Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration Examples

This section provides examples of how to enable Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration on a bucket and use the acceleration endpoint for the enabled bucket. Some of the AWS SDK supported languages (for example, Java and .NET) use an accelerate endpoint client configuration flag so you don't need to explicitly set the endpoint for Transfer Acceleration to bucketname.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com. For more information about Transfer Acceleration, see Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration.

Topics

Using the Amazon S3 Console

For information about enabling Transfer Acceleration on a bucket using the Amazon S3 console, see Enabling Transfer Acceleration in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Console User Guide.

Using Transfer Acceleration from the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI)

This section provides examples of AWS CLI commands used for Transfer Acceleration. For instructions on setting up the AWS CLI, see Setting Up the AWS CLI.

Enabling Transfer Acceleration on a Bucket Using the AWS CLI

Use the AWS CLI put-bucket-accelerate-configuration command to enable or suspend Transfer Acceleration on a bucket. The following example sets Status=Enabled to enable Transfer Acceleration on a bucket. You use Status=Suspended to suspend Transfer Acceleration.

Example

$ aws s3api put-bucket-accelerate-configuration --bucket bucketname --accelerate-configuration Status=Enabled

Using the Transfer Acceleration from the AWS CLI

Setting the configuration value use_accelerate_endpoint to true in a profile in your AWS Config File will direct all Amazon S3 requests made by s3 and s3api AWS CLI commands to the accelerate endpoint: s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com. Transfer Acceleration must be enabled on your bucket to use the accelerate endpoint.

All request are sent using the virtual style of bucket addressing:  my-bucket.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com. Any ListBuckets, CreateBucket, and DeleteBucket requests will not be sent to the accelerate endpoint as the endpoint does not support those operations. For more information about use_accelerate_endpoint, see AWS CLI S3 Configuration.

The following example sets use_accelerate_endpoint to true in the default profile.

Example

$ aws configure set default.s3.use_accelerate_endpoint true

If you want to use the accelerate endpoint for some AWS CLI commands but not others, you can use either one of the following two methods:

  • You can use the accelerate endpoint per command by setting the --endpoint-url parameter to https://s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com or http://s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com for any s3 or s3api command.
  • You can setup separate profiles in your AWS Config File. For example, create one profile that sets use_accelerate_endpoint to true and a profile that does not set use_accelerate_endpoint. When you execute a command specify which profile you want to use, depending upon whether or not you want to use the accelerate endpoint.

AWS CLI Examples of Uploading an Object to a Bucket Enabled for Transfer Acceleration

The following example uploads a file to a bucket enabled for Transfer Acceleration by using the default profile that has been configured to use the accelerate endpoint.

Example

$ aws s3 cp file.txt s3://bucketname/keyname --region region

The following example uploads a file to a bucket enabled for Transfer Acceleration by using the --endpoint-url parameter to specify the accelerate endpoint.

Example

$ aws configure set s3.addressing_style virtual
$ aws s3 cp file.txt s3://bucketname/keyname --region region --endpoint-url http://s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com

Using Transfer Acceleration from the AWS SDK for Java

Example
The following example shows how to use an accelerate endpoint to upload an object to Amazon S3. The example does the following:

  • Creates an AmazonS3Client that is configured to use accelerate endpoints. All buckets that the client accesses must have transfer acceleration enabled.
  • Enables transfer acceleration on a specified bucket. This step is necessary only if the bucket you specify doesn't already have transfer acceleration enabled.
  • Verifies that transfer acceleration is enabled for the specified bucket.
  • Uploads a new object to the specified bucket using the bucket's accelerate endpoint. For more information about using Transfer Acceleration, see Getting Started with Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration. For instructions on creating and testing a working sample, see Testing the Amazon S3 Java Code Examples.

.getStatus();
System.out.println("Bucket accelerate status: " + accelerateStatus);
// Upload a new object using the accelerate endpoint.
s3Client.putObject(bucketName, keyName, "Test object for transfer acceleration");
System.out.println("Object \"" + keyName + "\" uploaded with transfer acceleration.");
} catch (AmazonServiceException e) {
// The call was transmitted successfully, but Amazon S3 couldn't process
// it, so it returned an error response.
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SdkClientException e) {
// Amazon S3 couldn't be contacted for a response, or the client
// couldn't parse the response from Amazon S3.
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

Using Transfer Acceleration from the AWS SDK for .NET

The following example shows how to use the AWS SDK for .NET to enable Transfer Acceleration on a bucket. For instructions on how to create and test a working sample, see Running the Amazon S3 .NET Code Examples.

Example

using Amazon.S3;
using Amazon.S3.Model;
using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace Amazon.DocSamples.S3
{
class TransferAccelerationTest
{
private const string bucketName = "*** bucket name ***";
// Specify your bucket region (an example region is shown).
private static readonly RegionEndpoint bucketRegion = RegionEndpoint.USWest2;
private static IAmazonS3 s3Client;
public static void Main()
{
s3Client = new AmazonS3Client(bucketRegion);
EnableAccelerationAsync().Wait();
}
static async Task EnableAccelerationAsync()
{
try
{
var putRequest = new PutBucketAccelerateConfigurationRequest
{
BucketName = bucketName,
AccelerateConfiguration = new AccelerateConfiguration
{
Status = BucketAccelerateStatus.Enabled
}
};
await s3Client.PutBucketAccelerateConfigurationAsync(putRequest);
var getRequest = new GetBucketAccelerateConfigurationRequest
{
BucketName = bucketName
};
var response = await s3Client.GetBucketAccelerateConfigurationAsync(getRequest);
Console.WriteLine("Acceleration state = '{0}' ", response.Status);
}
catch (AmazonS3Exception amazonS3Exception)
{
Console.WriteLine(
"Error occurred. Message:'{0}' when setting transfer acceleration",
amazonS3Exception.Message);
}
}
}
}

When uploading an object to a bucket that has Transfer Acceleration enabled, you specify using acceleration endpoint at the time of creating a client as shown:

var client = new AmazonS3Client(new AmazonS3Config
{
RegionEndpoint = TestRegionEndpoint,
UseAccelerateEndpoint = true
}
