This What's New is associated with the 2006-03-01 release of Amazon S3. This guide was last updated on March 16, 2010.
The following table describes the important changes since the last release of the Amazon S3 Developer Guide.
| Change | Description | Date |
|---|---|---|
| Object Versioning | This release introduces object versioning. All objects now can have a key and a version. If you enable versioning for a bucket, Amazon S3 gives all objects added to a bucket a unique version ID. This feature enables you to recover from unintended overwrites and deletions. For more information, see Versioning and Using Versioning. | 8 February 2010 |
| New Region supported | Amazon S3 now supports the US-West (Northern California) Region. The new
endpoint for requests to this region is s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com.
For more information, see Buckets and
Regions. | 2 December 2009 |
| AWS SDK for .NET | AWS now provides libraries, sample code, tutorials, and other resources for software developers who prefer to build applications using .NET language-specific APIs instead of REST or SOAP. These libraries provide basic functions (not included in the REST or SOAP APIs), such as request authentication, request retries, and error handling so that it's easier to get started. For more information about language-specific libraries and resources, see AWS Library Support, or go to Working With Amazon S3 in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Getting Started Guide. | 11 November 2009 |
| Technical documents reorganized | The API reference has been split out of the Amazon S3 Developer Guide. Now, on the documentation landing page, http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID=123&categoryID=48 you can select the document you want to view. When viewing the documents online, the links in one document will take you, when appropriate, to one of the other guides. | 16 September 2009 |
