### Why not upload to Amazon S3 directly?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Amazon S3 has several limitations that we consider problematic:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* The minimum chunk size for multipart uploads is 5 MB. This is by far too
|
||||||
|
large for use under bad network conditions.
|
||||||
|
* Throughput to S3 is often too slow for high bandwidth clients.
|
||||||
|
* S3 is a proprietary technology. Having an open, vendor agnostic API allows
|
||||||
|
you to treat it as an implementation detail.
|
||||||
|
* The lack of uniform HTML5, iOS and Android clients that can be easily used
|
||||||
|
to add reliable file uploading to any application.
|
||||||
|
* While there is some support, S3 was not designed to be used in a browser
|
||||||
|
environment.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
S3 is still an incredible offering, but we feel that it leaves much to be
|
||||||
|
desired when it comes to offering the best file uploading experience to your
|
||||||
|
users.
