SailsJS skipper-s3 docs suggests S3 bucket should be in US standard - but no such region in S3 UI

Referring to the SailsJS Skipper-S3 doc here: http://sailsjs.com/documentation/concepts/file-uploads/uploading-to-s-3 the box says:

Please note that your Amazon S3 bucket must be created in the 'US Standard' region. If you fail to do so, you will get a 'TypeError('Uncaught, unspecified "error" event.').

However, looks like Amazon S3's new bucket UI does not have "US Standard" as any of the listed regions.

So where should I be creating the S3 bucket now?

Solution

  • S3 Regions

    Q. Wasn’t there a US Standard region?

    We renamed the US Standard Region to US East (Northern Virginia) Region to be consistent with AWS regional naming conventions. There is no change to the endpoint and you do not need to make any changes to your application.
