How to Connect WordPress to Amazon S3 Bucket?

 

This plugin automatically uploads all of your WordPress media library attachments to the Amazon S3 bucket. No, you got to reserve it on an equivalent server as the WordPress site hosted.

Also, all the media files uploaded from the Next3AWS Plugin can be stored in the Amazon S3 bucket, and you can create a new Amazon S3 bucket from the plugin settings.

How Amazon S3 works

Amazon S3 is an object storage service that stores data as objects within buckets. An object is a file and any metadata that describes the file. A bucket is a container for objects.

To store your data in Amazon S3, you first create a bucket and specify a bucket name and AWS Region. Then, you upload your data to that bucket as objects in Amazon S3. Each object has a key (or key name), which is the unique identifier for the object within the bucket.

What are the advantages of using Amazon S3 for your WordPress site?

Reduced requests to the server—because your server does not have to deliver media files (or potentially assets), you’ll reduce your page load times.

More affordable storage – if you’re butting up against your host’s storage limits, I can almost guarantee that S3’s storage prices are cheaper than what your host will charge.

Detached media – because your media files are detached from your site, it’s a heckuva lot easier to maneuver your WordPress site around (like between hosts). You’re basically just moving the PHP files, which takes up almost no space.

Scalability – because Amazon S3 powers the whole Internet (ok, that’s a touch of hyperbole), you’ll be pretty confident that Amazon can scale with whatever’s happening to your site. Read More
