When you view your S3 DuraCloud account using a GUI client or the AWS CLI for the first time in a new account, you will notice a number of pre-existing buckets that have been created.

  • aws-sam-*: this is a deployment artifact bucket only. It is inaccessible.
  • duracloud-$ID-bucket-requested: this bucket is used to make requests to create new buckets.duracloud-$ID-logs: this bucket collects raw audit trail events from AWS. It is inaccessible.
  • duracloud-$ID-managed: this bucket is used to deposit generated files such as audit history, exports, inventory, and reports. It is read-only.
  • duracloud-$ID-private: a default private bucket
  • duracloud-$ID-public: a default public bucket (files uploaded here will have a publicly accessible URL)

...

The duracloud-$ID-managed bucket will use these prefixes (folders) over time:

  • audit: audit logsbucket-requested: receives status reports on bucket creation request outcomes
  • exports: CSV of checksum status checks and schedules
  • inventory: receives inventory CSV files per user bucket created
  • logs: receives status reports such as bucket creation request outcomes
  • reports: storage usage reports in HTML format

More information about the data available in the -managed bucket is available at Reports.
