Chapter 11. Lifecyle bucket configuration in Multicloud Object Gateway

Multicloud Object Gateway (MCG) lifecycle provides a way to reduce storage costs due to accumulated data objects.

Deletion of expired objects is a simplified way that enables handling of unused data. Data expiration is a part of Amazon Web Services (AWS) lifecycle management and sets an expiration date for automatic deletion. The minimal time resolution of the lifecycle expiration is one day. For more information, see Expiring objects.

AWS S3 API is used to configure lifecyle bucket in MCG. For information about the data bucket APIs and their support level, see Support of Multicloud Object Gateway data bucket APIs.

There are a few limitations with the expiratation rule API for MCG in comaparison with AWS:

  • ExpiredObjectDeleteMarker is accepted but it is not processed.
  • No option to define specific non-current version’s expiration conditions
