How to Register for an Object Storage Subscription on Jotelulu

In this tutorial, you will learn how to register for an Object Storage to help manage large volumes of storage. All you need to do is set a quota and set up your users.

These days, businesses need increasingly more storage space to maintain and protect their security copies, application data, etc. The hardware to do this can cost serious amounts of money. To respond to this problem, Jotelulu has developed Object Storage, a cloud storage solution that allows businesses to store large volumes of data in an organised, secure and accessible way.

  

How to register for an Object Storage on Jotelulu?

  

Before you begin:

To successfully complete this tutorial, you will need:

  • To be registered on the Jotelulu platform and have signed in using your username and password.
  • To have an organisation on the platform with at least one registered user so that they can be linked to the Object Storage (this requirement can be considered optional since users can be created when deploying the service).
Note: If this is your first time working with Object Storage, you may want to take a look first at the tutorial entitled: Object Storage Quick Guide.

  

Step 1. Create and name the Object Storage

From the main dashboard, click either on Services on the top menu (1), the New Service button (2) or the Add Service card (3) and select Object Storage.
  

Step 1. Start the S3 bucket deployment process from the main dashboard
Step 1. Start the Object Storage deployment process from the main dashboard

  

First, you will be required to enter a name for the subscription (4)* so that it will be easier to identify later. You will also need to set the storage quota for your bucket (5). Once you have done this, click on Next (6).

*Note: Due to system limitations, the name of the subscription must only contain letters and numbers and not contain any special symbols, capital letters or spaces.

  

Step 1. Choose a name and quota for your S3 bucket
Step 1. Choose a name and quota for your Object Storage

  

Step 2. Choose the owner of the Object Storage

Next, you will need to choose a user to be the owner of the bucket. Being an owner means having complete control over the bucket, and it is only possible to have one owner per bucket. Choose an owner from the list of users shown (7).

Note: You will have to give specific permissions to any other user that needs to access the bucket. These will need to be added once the service has been deployed.

  

Step 2. Choose the owner of the S3 bucket
Step 2. Choose the owner of the Object Storage

  

If the user that you want to be chosen as the owner has not yet been created, simply click on the New User button (9). Then enter their e-mail address (10) and other details (if the user is new on the platform).

Once you have chosen a user, click on Save (11).
  

Step 2. Create a new user to set as owner
Step 2. Create a new user to set as owner

  

Your Object Storage will now have been created (12) and can be managed from the main dashboard (13).
  

Step 2. The new S3 bucket will now have been created
Step 2. The new Object Storage bucket will now have been created

Destination (Recovery Site)
Set the destination location (availability zone) where you want the Recovery Site to be deployed.

Replication characteristics
Specify the data related to the number of copies to be kept and the frequency at which the replication will be performed.
