Setting up S3 Compatible Services


FileCloud officially supports only Amazon S3 storage.

  • Other Amazon S3 compatible storage systems are supported through our Amazon S3 drivers, including:
    • Alibaba Cloud object-based storage
    • Digital Ocean S3 object storage 
    • Scality
    • Wasabi
    • Google Cloud object storage
    • Backblaze B2
    • Cloudian S3-Compatible Object Storage
  • The robustness of these S3 compatible storage systems depends on their compatibility with Amazon S3 API.

Administrators can change the local FileCloud storage type to leverage an S3 compatible storage service you may already be using.

  • The local FileCloud storage type should only be changed after FileCloud has been installed but BEFORE any data has been stored.
  • Although FileCloud doesn't actively test all S3 compatible services, FileCloud should be able to leverage the storage services similar to Amazon S3.
