# Object Storage

CloudBit Object Storage is an S3-compatible object storage service that lets you store and serve large amounts of data. You can create them in a few seconds and use them immediately with no configuration. Data transfer is automatically secured with HTTPS, and the available storage capacity scales seamlessly.

Object Storage are ideal for storing static, unstructured data like audio, video, and images as well as large amounts of text. Use cases like databases, applications written in server-side languages, and mission-critical applications will work best with local storage (volumes).

To **enable** Object Storage, navigate to Object Storage in the menu on the left then the desired location and click the **(+ plus)** button on the right. You will then see the Access Key, Secret Key and the Endpoint Address, required for connecting and using your Object Storage.
