Edge Services is an additional feature for Scaleway Load Balancers and Object Storage buckets. Creating an Edge Services pipeline towards your Object Storage bucket brings you a number of possible benefits:
Read on to learn how to create an Edge Services pipeline for your Object Storage bucket.
To complete the actions presented below, you must have:
You can create an Edge Services pipeline from the Object Storage section of the console, by navigating to your bucket’s dashboard and clicking the Edge Services tab. However, in this documentation, we describe how to create a pipeline directly from the Edge Services section of the console.
Click Edge Services in the Network section of the Scaleway console side menu.
Click Create pipeline. The pipeline creation wizard displays.
Select Object Storage as the origin type.
Choose the bucket you want this pipeline to serve content for, under Origin bucket.
Enter a name for the pipeline, or leave the randomly generated name in place.
Check the summary cost for the pipeline, and click Create Edge Services pipeline.
You are returned to the Pipelines tab, where the newly created pipeline now displays.
Click on the pipeline to go to its Overview page and start configuration.
Your bucket’s visibility can be set to private, but any objects within it that you want to expose via Edge Services must be set to public visibility. However, in the case that you are using Edge Services with bucket website, objects can remain private.
Once you have created an Edge Services pipeline for your bucket, you can access your bucket and its content via the following endpoints. Make sure that you replace bucket-name with the name of your bucket.
| Endpoint | Where to find this endpoint in the console | Notes |
|---|---|---|
https://bucket-name.s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud | The Bucket settings tab | Edge Services is bypassed when the bucket is accessed via this endpoint |
https://bucket-name.svc.edge.scw.cloud | The Edge Services tab | Edge Services serves bucket content when this endpoint is used |
The two endpoints shown above are available as standard. However, with Edge Services, you can also choose to configure a custom domain from which your bucket can be accessed. Read more about this in the next section.
