## AI overview

Neon Object Storage is a beta, S3-compatible object store integrated into the Neon backend. Its defining feature is branch-aware storage: database branches inherit buckets and objects, while copy-on-write keeps branches isolated and avoids upfront duplication.

## Source excerpt

We just launched Neon Object Storage, a branch-aware, S3-compatible object store built into the Neon backend. If you've used Neon branches before, you know the workflow: branch main into a child and get an isolated copy of your database in about a second. Object Storage adds files to that picture.
