Hi Charlene,

I haven't done this, but you could just mount the remote storage (using
sshfs), and present that to your cloud hosting provider as
/dspace/assetstore. Your app will think of the assetstore the same as
normal. I imagine that the network latency/IO would be slower than native
storage though.

I think there was also someone trying to build an amazon s3 storage layer,
but I haven't heard more about that.
