自动将Amazon S3文件或Google Cloud Storage中的链接添加到Google Cloud SQL表

Question

I'm trying to create a table in Google Cloud SQL that automatically updates with embed links from files that are added to certain buckets in Google Cloud Storage and Amazon S3. These will eventually be embedded in a website I'm building. I can't figure out where to even start getting these applications to talk to each other.

I've learned enough basic mySQL to work my way around the Google Cloud SQL interface, but I'm really very new to databases, so thanks in advance for your patience!

Answer 1

Both AWS and GC have relatively straightforward mechanisms for getting bucket object event details back to a database.

S3 has Event Notifications which can (among other things) trigger an AWS Lambda function to insert information about the new object into your database.

GCS has Cloud Pub/Sub Notifications for Google Cloud Storage which can (among other things) trigger a Google Cloud Function to insert information about the new object into your database.

In both environments, you can write the function for Node.js and instead of it running on servers, it's handled by automatically scaling containers. On AWS, there is native support for some additional languages.
