Object Storage Service:Supported features

Last Updated:Mar 20, 2026

This page lists OSS features and their support status when OSS-HDFS is enabled on a bucket.

"Not applicable" means the feature applies only to OSS objects, not OSS-HDFS files.

Features for buckets

FeatureDescriptionSupport status
Storage classesOSS provides Standard, Infrequent Access (IA), Archive, Cold Archive, and Deep Cold Archive storage classes.Activate OSS-HDFS only on Standard and IA buckets.
View resource usageThe OSS console displays bucket resource usage for reference.You can view only basic statistics, ranking statistics, region and operator statistics, and API statistics.
List bucketsList all buckets, buckets with a specific prefix, or a specific number of buckets under your Alibaba Cloud account.Supported.
Delete bucketsDelete a bucket you no longer need.Supported.
Query bucket regionCall GetBucketLocation to get the physical region of a bucket.Supported.
Resource groupsGroup buckets by business requirements and configure per-group access permissions.Supported.
Pay-by-requesterCharge requesters for request and traffic fees; the bucket owner pays only storage fees.Supported.
Bucket taggingTag buckets to classify and manage them, and apply access control list (ACL) rules by tag.Supported.
Bucket ACLsSet or change the ACL of a bucket.Supported.
Bucket policiesGrant other users access to specific OSS resources via bucket policy.Supported.
Server-side encryptionEncrypt objects at upload and decrypt at download transparently.Supported.
Redundancy typesOSS supports locally redundant storage (LRS) and zone-redundant storage (ZRS).LRS supported. ZRS not supported.
Monitoring serviceMonitor OSS system status and performance, and set custom alerts.Supported.
OSS acceleratorCache frequently accessed objects for high-throughput scenarios.Not applicable.
VersioningProtect objects from accidental overwrites or deletions by preserving previous versions.Not applicable.
Hotlink protectionPrevent unauthorized access to bucket resources via Referer-based rules.Not applicable.
CORSCross-origin resource sharing (CORS) controls cross-origin access for web applications.Not applicable.
Retention policiesWrite Once Read Many (WORM) compliance: prevent objects from being deleted or overwritten for a set period.Not applicable.
Client-side encryptionEncrypt objects on the client before uploading to OSS.Not applicable.
OSS DDoS protectionProxy-based DDoS attack mitigation integrated with Anti-DDoS Proxy.Not applicable.
Cross-region replication (CRR)Automatically replicate objects across buckets in different regions.Not applicable.
Same-region replication (SRR)Automatically replicate objects across buckets in the same region.Not applicable.
Replication Time Control (RTC)Replicate most objects within seconds and 99.99% of objects within 10 minutes, with real-time monitoring.Not applicable.
Scheduled backupPeriodically back up bucket objects to Cloud Backup for recovery.Not applicable.
Lifecycle rules (last modified time)Transition objects to lower-cost storage classes or delete them based on last modified time.Not applicable. Use automatic storage tiering for OSS-HDFS instead.
Lifecycle rules (last access time)Transition cold data automatically based on access patterns.Not applicable.
Bucket inventoryExport object metadata (count, size, storage class, encryption status) for large-scale analysis.Not applicable. For buckets with OSS-HDFS activated, export object metadata using Export object metadata instead.
Static website hostingHost static websites on an OSS bucket with a bucket domain name.Not applicable.
Mirroring-based back-to-originRetrieve missing objects from an origin and cache them in the bucket on demand.Not applicable.
Transfer accelerationRoute requests over the optimal global network path for faster transfers.Not applicable.
Custom domain namesMap custom domain names to buckets via CNAME records.Not applicable.
IMGProcess image objects via GetObject parameters (watermarks, format conversion, etc.).Not applicable.
Video snapshotsCapture video snapshots using configured parameters.Not applicable.
ZIP package decompressionAutomatically decompress ZIP packages uploaded to configured paths.Not applicable.
Event notificationsGet notified when specified events occur on monitored objects.Not applicable.
LoggingGenerate hourly access logs and store them in a target bucket for analysis.Not applicable.
Real-time log queryQuery bucket access logs in real time for auditing and troubleshooting.Not applicable.
