+In CVAT you can use AWS-S3 and Azure Blob Container cloud storages to store image datasets for your tasks.
+Initially you need to create a manifest file for your image dataset. Information on how to do that is available
+on the [Simple command line to prepare dataset manifest file](/docs/manual/advanced/dataset_manifest) page.
+
+After the manifest file has been created, you can upload it and your dataset to an AWS-S3 or
+Azure Blob Container cloud storage.
+
+After that you will be able to attach a cloud storage. To do this, press the `Attach new cloud storage`
+button on the `Cloud storages` page and fill out the following form:
+
+![](/images/image228.jpg)
+
+- `Display name` - the display name of the cloud storage.
+- `Description` (optional) - description of the cloud storage, appears when you click on the `?` button
+of an item on cloud storages page.
