It's too much of a generic question to be answered right. Do you need global availability? Do you need high speed downloads? Are you worried about bandwidth costs? etc.
We use S3 + Cloudfront for documents that we want to be quickly accessed by our customers. We use SFTP for our internal docs when we don't care that much about availability and speed.

- didgetmaster 4y agoIf you are willing to try out some beta software, give https://didgets.com/ https://didgets.com/ a look. You can load in hundreds of millions of documents or other kinds of files and put meta-data tags on each of them. Queries for individual documents or sets of them execute with sub-second speeds. The software is in beta and available for free download. Currently working on the indexing feature to index the contents of the files too.
- aborsy 4y agoWhat SFTP client do you use in Linux? The command line isn’t very convenient.
- s1k3s 4y agoWe don't, we're accessing it programmatically from php, it has built in support. I'm not sure how it works under the hood.
