DigitalOcean has made several enhancements to its cloud storage solutions, including the general availability of per-bucket access keys with mixed permissions support and public preview of Spaces access logs. These updates aim to simplify storage management for customers handling large-scale deployments, automated backups, and security-driven workflows. The new features enable automation through various tools such as the DigitalOcean API, Terraform Provider, doctl CLI, and DigitalOcean's Python library (PyDo), allowing users to grant varying permissions to buckets with a single access key. Additionally, Spaces access logs provide detailed records of read and write requests, capturing object paths, client IPs, and more, which can be used for usage analysis, security, and compliance purposes. These enhancements are designed to improve the overall security, scalability, and manageability of DigitalOcean Spaces.
