, a "temp bucket" or "temporary bucket" is a storage container used in cloud computing and data processing workflows to temporarily hold data, files, or objects for a short duration. It is designed for short-lived and transient data, typically used during data processing stages or as an interim storage solution. Temp buckets offer scalability, resource optimization, and efficient management of transient data in cloud-based environments. They are commonly utilized in cloud storage services like Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Microsoft Azure Blob Storage. Data in temporary buckets is typically removed or cleaned up after a specific time or when it is no longer needed for processing.
