# AWS S3 Rehydration

<Badge className="hny-badge-enterprise-addon" stroke>Ent+</Badge>

<Note>
  This feature is available as an add-on for the [Honeycomb Enterprise plan](https://www.honeycomb.io/pricing/).
  Please contact your Honeycomb account team for details.
</Note>

## Object Format

Rehydrated data must be in [OTLP format JSON](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-proto) for correct processing. Ensure your data adheres to this format.

The [AWS S3 Destination](/send-data/telemetry-pipeline/destinations/aws-s3/) supports `gzip` compression. This receiver will gracefully detect and handle if any data is gzipped or uncompressed.
