much as I like the cloud computing concept and think that it is the future, you might want to hold off the migration to S3 until things stabilize.

Or what keyword should be used for a google search.

Did some google search and got no good results.


I'm currently finalizing the implementation of exactly this.

Check out http://gigafile.asia.

Some work remains to be done on the site, but I hope to release the code
under a Libre license within the next month.


This is awesome! Since you are running this out of your own infrastructure, are
you looking at Amazon EC2 type of scalability solutions?


I've considered Amazon's infrastructure, especially S3 storage, but I'm restricted by my current choice of storage layer. GigaFile is using Apache Jackrabbit as it's underlying storage mechanism, and this layer would likely have to be replaced with something like Apache Hadoop to leverage Amazon S3. So much to do, so little time :)
