I'm implementing an app which offers file storage in Amazon S3, while the user operates with normal files & folders concept. In the backend I use the AWS Java SDK Version 2.

Do I have any way to rename/move an entire folder (thus recursively modifying it's content) ?

Or do I have to manually implement a recursive parsing and invoking copy delete for each resource ?

Thanks.

I don't think you can rename the file directory, the full path is actually an object store key.

In amazon S3 you don’t really have folders, it’s just a key. So if you want to « rename a folder » unfortunately you have to move all your objects to another key.
