Amazon S3
Features
Amazon S3 buckets provide a object storage system that can hold large (to nearly unlimited) amount of data. S3 buckets can be versioned so that the history of changes and copies of old resources are kept and accessible if needed, all 'Versioned' plans are capable of this. S3 buckets can also be encrypted, all 'shield' plans automatically encrypt the underlying S3 hardware storage with KMS keys.

Upgrading
S3 cannot be automatically upgraded once created, resources in the S3 should be synced down to a file system then syncronized up to a newly created S3 with the target settings.
