Answer: Amazon S3

Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is the correct choice because: - **Object Storage**: S3 is designed specifically for object storage and provides URL-based access to objects - **URL Access**: S3 objects can be accessed via pre-signed URLs or public URLs (if the bucket policy allows) - **Web Integration**: S3 integrates well with web applications and can serve static content directly - **Other options comparison**: - **Amazon Glacier**: Designed for archival storage with retrieval times of minutes to hours, not suitable for immediate URL downloads - **Amazon Storage Gateway**: Hybrid storage service that connects on-premises environments to AWS cloud storage, not primarily for URL-based object access - **Amazon EBS**: Block storage service for EC2 instances, not designed for object storage or URL-based access S3 is the ideal solution for storing objects that need to be accessible via URLs, making it perfect for web content, file sharing, and application data storage.
