          # By default keepstore stores data using the MD5 checksum
          # (32 hexadecimal characters) as the object name, e.g.,
          # "0123456abc...". Setting PrefixLength to 3 changes this
          # naming scheme to "012/0123456abc...". This can improve
          # performance, depending on the S3 service being used. For
          # example, PrefixLength 3 is recommended to avoid AWS
          # limitations on the number of read/write operations per

h2(#IAM). IAM Policy On Amazon, VMs which will access the S3 bucket (these include keepstore and compute nodes) will need an IAM policy with "permission that can read, write, list and delete objects in the bucket":https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_create.html . Here is an example policy:
{
    "Id": "arvados-keepstore policy",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                  "s3:*"
            ],
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::xarv1-nyw5e-000000000000000-volume"
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::xarv1-nyw5e-000000000000000-volume/*"
        }
