Hi everyone, I see people are using this list for small announcements so here it is :)
I've just released a (what appears to be) working version of a custom cache backend which stores data into Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3). It is largely based on the existing filesystem backend with some minor additions. It depends on django-storages which implements the actual storage to S3 and Boto. You can check it out at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-s3-cache/ or https://github.com/atodorov/django-s3-cache. Hope you find it useful! I did some manual testing from the console and all appeared to be working nicely. In the next few days I will be adding this to my site www.dif.io and see how it behaves in production. If you wonder why I built it, here's the answer: I need a cache to lower the load on my DB server and prepare the site for better times when it will have much more users, but I didn't want to maintain my own memcached cluster or pay top dollars to Amazon ElastiCache. Storage in S3 is way cheaper compared to other options and is ideal for for startup sites which are not heavily utilized.
