Bucket

Storage container for files in the cloud — images, videos, documents, model weights, anything but traditional databases. AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage and Cloudflare R2 are the most common. Used by AI systems to store training data, models, and uploaded user content. Note jurisdiction: a bucket in the US is subject to US laws.
