AWS S3 Storage

AI Tools

Description

Typically you would send data to an AWS S3 bucket for long-term storage, or to send a subset of the data to a database. By sending your data through a Mezmo Pipeline before sending it to S3, you can encrypt sensitive data, remove fields you don't need to store, and compact values to make sure the data you’re storing is complete for easy retrieval and rehydration in case you need it later.

Configuration Options
