aws-s3-mv:tldr:edf7c

aws-s3-mv: Move a specific S3 object into another bucket keeping the original name.
$ aws s3 mv s3://${bucket_name1}/${filename} s3://${bucket_name2}
try on your machine

This command is using the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) to move a file from one S3 bucket to another. Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • aws: This is the command to initiate the AWS CLI.
  • s3: This indicates that we are using the S3 service.
  • mv: This is the command to move a file from one location to another.
  • s3://${bucket_name1}/${filename}: This is the source file that needs to be moved. It is specified using the S3 bucket name (${bucket_name1}) and the filename (${filename}) within the bucket.
  • s3://${bucket_name2}: This is the destination where the file should be moved to. It is specified using the S3 bucket name (${bucket_name2}).
This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
