Swarm provides a hierarchy of container objects: cluster, domain, and bucket (shown in white, below) to facilitate organizing storage of data objects.
...
Configure a cluster in to a storage cloud (such as cloud.com, below) that allows users in one storage domain (my.cloud.com) securely access content separately from other users:
...
A cluster administrator creates the domain either using the Swarm Admin Console or programmatically, with an SCSP command. Buckets and data objects must be created in a domain (tenanted), so plan to create domains first.

Buckets
Buckets are the required organizing containers for any named objects in a domain. Buckets allows creating logical paths to named objects, and they provide a layer of access control.

Note
Buckets are not folders: they cannot be nested in other buckets.
The bucket must be created prior to storing a named object since named objects exist within buckets.
...
The cluster synchronously creates two replicas of the bucket object and then asynchronously creates any additional replicas as determined by a lifepoint header https://caringo.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/public/pages/2443821972/Lifepoint+Metadata+Headers?search_id=029a4c47-7770-4c44-acc5-b28bbe0cf645 or the scsp.defaultContextReplicas and scsp.maxContextReplicas configuration parameters when creating a new bucket.
