Create a Profile
This allows us to store the Access Key ID and Secret Key in a ready to use profile.
aws configure --profile myNewProfile
After, we can call the profile to ask what info can be gathered about the user.
aws sts get-caller-identity --profile myNewProfile
​
S3
AWS S3 is used for storage 
aws s3 ls --profile myNewProfile
aws s3 ls s3://myNewBucket/ --profile myNewProfile
Copy a file from the bucket to local dir
aws s3 cp s3://myNewBucket/lol.txt ./ --profile myNewProfile
Don't forget to check for open buckets!
