When we go to S3 in AWS console in "Global" option it shows
"S3 does not require region selection."
But when we create new bucket there it asks for Region !
So are S3 buckets region specific ?
Amazon S3 supports global buckets, which means that each bucket name must be unique across all AWS accounts in all the AWS Regions within a partition. A partition is a grouping of Regions.
The short answer is you can't migrate a S3 bucket from one region to another.
An Amazon S3 bucket is owned by the AWS account that created it. Bucket ownership is not transferable to another account. When you create a bucket, you choose its name and the AWS Region to create it in. After you create a bucket, you can't change its name or Region.
The user interface shows all your buckets, in all regions. But buckets exist in a specific region and you need to specify that region when you create a bucket.
