Step 1: Create a Bucket

Let's create a bucket to store your objects:

mc mb s11_dus2/my-first-bucket

Replace my-first-bucket with a unique name for your bucket.

Step 2: Upload a File

Now, let's upload a file to your new bucket:

echo "Hello, SysEleven Object Storage!" > test.txt
mc cp test.txt s11_dus2/my-first-bucket/

Verify the file upload by listing the contents of your bucket:
