AWS General

A bucket is a container for objects stored in Amazon S3. Every object is contained in a bucket. For example, if the object named photos/puppy.jpg is stored in the johnsmith bucket, then it is addressable using the URL http://johnsmith.s3.amazonaws.com/photos/puppy.jpg

Path: it says

S3Uri: represents the location of a S3 object, prefix, or bucket. This must be written in the form s3://mybucket/mykey where mybucket is the specified S3 bucket, mykey is the specified S3 key. The path argument must begin with s3:// in order to denote that the path argument refers to a S3 object. Note that prefixes are separated by forward slashes. For example, if the S3 object myobject had the prefix myprefix, the S3 key would be myprefix/myobject, and if the object was in the bucket mybucket, the S3Uri would be s3://mybucket/myprefix/myobject.
