- SDKs
KS3 provides SDKs for multiple languages. You can use these SDKs to build upload and download features for your applications.
- API
KS3 provides a set of RESTful API operations to meet flexible development requirements. For more information, see API overview.
The AWS S3 protocol is supported by a variety of open-source tools, and KS3 is compatible with common AWS S3 API operations. Therefore, applications and services developed based on the AWS S3 protocol can be easily migrated to KS3. For more information about the API compatibility with AWS S3, see Compatibility with the AWS S3 protocol.
- KS3 console
You can access the KS3 console in a browser to perform operations as required. For example, you can manage your account, view bills, and configure permissions. For more information about how to use the KS3 console, see the KS3 console manual.
KS3 supports both HTTP and HTTPS. We recommend that you use HTTPS to protect your information. If you use the default endpoint to access KS3, you do not need to install the certificate on the client. In this case, if you need to access a KS3 object, enter the object URL in a browser by replacing http:// with https://. You can also use a custom endpoint to access KS3. For more information, see How can I use a custom domain name to support HTTPS.
