A standalone Amazon S3 (REST) client for PHP 5.2.x using CURL that does not require PEAR.

Recently I worked on a project that required manipulating and sending images to Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service). When using this service it is possible to not only send the original image that a user uploads but also to process, resize, crop without the need to do any file writing on your own server.

This is an AS3 library for accessing Amazon's S3 service. It only works in Apollo because of restrictions in the browser player.

For Technology Start-ups and Established Businesses, the offering of cloud services from Amazon Web Services (AWS) is one of the few excellent solutions available for businesses that require and prefer to have a cloud infrastructure solution thus benefiting from its well-document cloud advantages. It follows that AWS is a pay-per-use service, which allows an universal usage of great computing resources which sits well on business plans due to its readiness, flexibility and cost effectiveness. Nevertheless, AWS are not easy for start-ups to configure well and efficiently, furthermore established businesses tend to spend too much time on optimizations with spiralling costs. Although there a few tools by third parties that help minimize the risk using data analysis from resources.

At the end of the first quarter of 2012, there were 905 billion objects in Amazon S3 . We routinely handle 650,000 requests per second for those objects with occasional peaks substantially above that number.
