There are a number of software requirements for installing Content Connector for AWS S3 version 4.0.
Note
You are unable to use the S3 Connector with the Glacier Connector if you are already using Amazon S3 with WORM storage. Amazon S3 with WORM storage requires that you use multiple buckets which is not supported by the Glacier Connector.
Alfresco requirements
- Alfresco Content Services 6.2 or later releases. See Alfresco Supported Platforms for more information.
Java requirements
- OpenJDK 11.
AWS related requirements
In order to use the S3 Connector, you will need an AWS account so that you can configure the S3 Connector successfully. This includes having an admin account to set up an S3 bucket, or have access to a bucket that's already set up.
Note
The bucket name must be unique among all AWS users globally. See S3 bucket restrictions for more information on bucket naming.
