Episode 82 — Object Storage Concepts — Tenants, Buckets, and Metadata
This episode focuses on object storage, a highly scalable and flexible method for storing unstructured data. We explain how tenants represent isolated environments within a provider’s infrastructure, buckets serve as top-level storage containers, and metadata adds descriptive attributes for easy retrieval and organization. The discussion includes how object storage supports RESTful API access, making it ideal for web applications, backups, and large-scale archival needs.
We also address considerations like access control policies, replication, and lifecycle management to optimize storage costs and performance. On the Cloud+ exam, you’ll be tested on recognizing object storage architectures and applying them to various workload scenarios. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com, where you’ll find more cyber prepcasts, books, and information to strengthen your certification path.
