I've seen some talk about integrating Amazon S3 as an assetstore (or
bitstream store as it's sometimes called).
Has anyone tried using something like s3fs, a "FUSE-based file system on
Amazon" ?
(I know there are several flavors of the same idea around but
http://code.google.com/p/s3fs/ seems like a fairly mature one. Another is
http://code.google.com/p/s3ql/ )
And just using a directory the mounted fs as your directory for the
assetstore.
Are there subtlties that I haven't noticed (after a 10 minute first glance)
that would make it apparent that this is a bad idea?
Has anyone done this successfully?
