So far we have discussed what is AWS S3 and what is the concept of Bucket in S3. If you haven,t read it, go to that link here. Now we are creating a bucket. You create an Amazon S3 bucket where you will store your objects.
Steps are as follows:

Step 3: Click on Create Bucket button.


Step 4: Provide a unique bucket name. Note that the name doesn't contain upper case letters. Then select your service region, and then click next.


Step 5: Now this is an important step as it contains some important concepts to be remembered. Right now, click next as we can configure this later.


Step 6: Permissions can be configured later. Click on next.


This is a review page so that you can edit any step again. Click next.
