Share Amazon S3 folders over the Internet and share files online from AWS data centers. Maintain data privacy and control. Turn S3 into your file sharing center with colleagues and business partners.
Amazon S3, for the most part, is known as the best cloud storage service in the market for its industry-leading scalability, data availability, security, and performance. Cloud storage is a natural fit for sharing across the Internet as compared to traditional on-premise file servers behind a corporate firewall. However, making S3 folders public may be the only default quick way to share. For those with security in mind, creating AWS IAM users for S3 file sharing sounds too complicated. You need a good solution to unleash the secure file sharing power of AWS S3.
Sending emails with several attachments was a norm over the years when it comes to sending files to co-workers or business partners. However, share a folder was never easy with email attachments. Sharing large file was impossible and got blocked by email services. With Amazon S3, it is much easier to share files and folders over the Internet since every file and folder has a default "web link" representation. AWS S3 has the building blocks for file sharing and the S3 storage by default is enterprise ready. All that we need is a solution to put-it-together into a nice easy-to-use and yet secure file sharing solution.
Accountants works on Quickbooks and need supporting documents from clients to close the books. They create web links represent folders from AWS S3 and send the link to clients that they help with book keeping. Those who received links, with password protection can securely upload documents to their accounts, without the need of sending email attachments or uploading to Dropbox.
