We are working with UAMS IT to get more user friendly addressing options. For the moment, we only allow for path-based addressing of the object store, and depend on the HTTPS ports outlined in the ECS Data Access Guide. Only the HTTPS protocols are allowed. For example, to access a Bucket named "foo" using the S3 protocol the URL would be https://uamsecs1.ad.uams.edu:9021/foo. If the bucket is not in the Object User's namespace, the RESTful call must also include x-emc-namespace in the HTTPS header.
A popular method for accessing the object store from the command line is the s3curl command. Since our object store is based on Dell EMC ECS technology, one should use the Dell EMC ECS variant of s3curl, found at https://github.com/EMCECS/s3curl.
There are a lot of other options for accessing the object store, including both free and paid software. We do not endorse any particular tool.
