Hi Charles, the class you're looking for is not ItemImport, but BitstreamStorageManager: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/dspace-3.2/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/storage/bitstore/BitstreamStorageManager.java Currently DSpace supports two bitstream storage (assetstore) backends: filesystem and SRB. > Has having DSpace store content in the Amazon S3 been looked at in the past? > If so, how was it resolved? There was an addon, but I can't find the code anymore: http://www.dspace.org/addons/#plug Look at S3BitStore here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+2.0+Pluggable+Storage A lot of instances are flagged as using it, but it doesn't seem right to me: http://www.dspace.org/index.php?option=com_customproperties&task=tag&tagName=Integrations+or+Customizations%3APluggable+Storage+S3&Itemid=151 For discussions of S3 in DSpace, see: http://dspace.2283337.n4.nabble.com/Using-Amazon-S3-for-an-Assetstore-td3387978.html http://osdir.com/ml/db.dspace.user/2007-03/msg00298.html For a similar recent discussion about adding another backend (iRODS), see: http://dspace.2283337.n4.nabble.com/iRODS-support-in-DSpace-td4664148.html Regards, ~~helix84 Compulsory reading: DSpace Mailing List Etiquette https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Mailing+List+Etiquette ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
