    • GET Requests
    • PUT Requests
    • First Byte Download Delay
    • 4xx Errors

Logging

Logs bucket access requests for analysis and auditing.

Event notification

Permission control

Controls OBS access permissions through IAM policies, bucket/object policies, and bucket/object access control lists (ACLs).

Lifecycle management

Static website hosting

Supports the hosting of static website content in buckets, and supports redirection of bucket access requests to specific hosts.

User-defined domain name binding

Binds your website domain names to bucket domain names. This function applies to the following scenario: migrating files from a website to OBS without modifying the code of the web page, and keeping the link of the website unchanged.

URL validation

Provides URL validation to prevent object links of OBS from being stolen by other websites.

Cross origin resource sharing (CORS)

Allows a web client in one origin to interact with resources in another one. CORS is a browser-standard mechanism defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). For general web page requests, website scripts and contents in one origin cannot interact with those in another origin because of Same Origin Policies (SOPs).
