# Operations

What to ask your platform team for, and how to automate the storage an application needs. Start with Access; use CI/CD and automation when a pipeline creates buckets, users and policies.

- **[Access](/develop/docs/dev-datastore-operations-access)**: Request a bucket, key pair and policies from your platform team, use temporary credentials, and check what your key can do.
- **[CI/CD and automation](/develop/docs/dev-datastore-operations-ci-cd)**: Create a bucket's view, user, S3 key and identity policy from CI with vastpy, the REST API or Terraform.
