Release: AWS SDK for Android 1.0.1

This sample demonstrates how to upload an image to Amazon S3 from your mobile device and how to make that image available on the web.

Customers now have the option to encrypt data stored "at rest" within Amazon S3. Amazon S3 Server Side Encryption provides customers with the ability to easily encrypt data -- securing their data in the cloud -- without the burden of building, managing, and securing a key management infrastructure.

This example stores an object and specifies that it should be encrypted:

File file = new File(uploadFileName);
PutObjectRequest putRequest = new PutObjectRequest(bucketName, keyName, file);

// Request server-side encryption.
ObjectMetadata objectMetadata = new ObjectMetadata();
objectMetadata.setServerSideEncryption(ObjectMetadata.AES_256_SERVER_SIDE_ENCRYPTION);
putRequest.setMetadata(objectMetadata);
PutObjectResult response = s3client.putObject(putRequest);
System.out.println("Uploaded object encryption status is " + response.getServerSideEncryption());

This example retrieves the encryption method associated with a specific object:

GetObjectMetadataRequest request = new GetObjectMetadataRequest(bucketName, keyName);
ObjectMetadata metadata = s3client.getObjectMetadata(request);
System.out.println("Encryption algorithm used: " + metadata.getServerSideEncryption());
