I don't see why FTP is any more valid than HTTP for this. Uploading from the browser directly to S3 isn't difficult. You can support resume and whatever auth strategy you want as your backend generates the signing key.
- victorNicollet 9y agoWe do this (well, with Azure Blob Storage instead of S3, but it's the same). It works because we can have our customer execute[#] some code that authenticates them, queries our server for the signature, then slices up the file and uploads it, then notifies our server when it's done. [#] including JavaScript in the page. Obviously, turning that into an automated process that runs from a Windows Scheduled Task (or worse) is not as easy.
