[EP-tech] EPrints and S3

CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.

Hi!

 Do you have any experience on using S3 for the documents/diskX
directory? My idea would like to create a diskX mounting an S3 share as
a folder in the server and using for big dataset (> 500GB). The user
would flag "This is a big dataset" in the metadata, and those eprints
documents would be stored there. Is it possible? Alternatively, I would
store anything in S3 but I'm puzzled about stability and S3
particularities (for example there's no move but copy and delete to move
a file between folders).

Thanks for any info!
