Manage the S3 access points for a volume in NetApp Workload Factory. You can use the Workload Factory console to assign S3 access points to existing volumes, view details for your S3 buckets, make changes to existing access points, or delete S3 access points.
Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP lets NFS and SMB file systems access S3 data and connect to AWS services like Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, Athena, AWS Glue, and more. You can connect AWS services to all of your object storage data.
Attach S3 access points to NFS and SMB volumes in an FSx for ONTAP file system so AWS services access files as if they are in an S3 bucket. When attaching the access point, define a unique ID, select the file access type (UNIX or Windows), and add a username for access authorization.
After you attach the S3 access point, it appears in the AWS Management Console with a unique alias. Use this alias as the S3 bucket name for AWS services, such as Amazon Bedrock, to access files in the FSx for ONTAP volume.
You can attach multiple S3 access points to a single FSx for ONTAP volume, each with a unique access level, to connect to multiple AWS services.
Ensure that you meet the following requirements:
-
You must have an existing volume with an S3 access point.
-
You must grant credentials with the operations and remediation permission policy in Workload Factory to complete this task.
