EBS or similar? As a side note though: what value add are you offering if you're passing the data to existing cloud storage?

  Sorry, whats ebs? i need to run some checks on the said uploaded file, and then create a database entry for it with meta data. Then move it off my server.

    Okay, if you can't google "EBS storage" I'm going to be frank and say you shouldn't be running a storage service.

      My apologies, i did google it and it seem like something i need. A bit ware about amazon and their prices that can sky rocket. seem to be a post on HN about it every other month. Im new to this part, gotta start somewhere right? https://xkcd.com/1053/ https://xkcd.com/1053/

        It's true, we all start somewhere. I ran a (very minor) storage service a while back while learning to code and the maintenance and risk profile is a much bigger liability than you might initially realise. Good luck with it though!
