What is e3 Object Storage
What e3 Object Storage is, how Root users and Users work, and how it differs from e3 Cloud Backup.
e3 Object Storage is managed S3-compatible storage in the eazyBackup client area. You get buckets, API keys, usage charts, and billing in one place — without running your own object store.
What you can do
Create buckets and upload or browse objects in the Bucket Browser
Issue Access Keys for the Root user and create Users with isolated buckets and scoped keys
Monitor usage, ingress/egress, and billing per service period
Connect backup apps, scripts, and appliances via the standard S3 API
Root user vs Users
Your service has one Root user (the primary identity on the account) and optional Users you create for isolation.
Access keys
One key pair (create or rotate on Access Keys)
Multiple keys per user
Key permissions
Always full access
Per key: Full, Read/Write, Read, or Write
Buckets
Own buckets only
Own buckets only
Cross-access
Cannot access a User’s buckets
Cannot access Root or other Users’ buckets
All storage and transfer for Root and Users is billed to your client account. Usage is not split into separate invoices per User.
Product boundaries
Keep these products separate when reading docs or opening tickets:
e3 Object Storage (this section) — S3 buckets, keys, browser, object storage billing.
e3 Cloud Backup — local agent, cloud backup jobs, vaults, Microsoft 365.
