How to Transfer Data from my PC to S3 on AWS

Question

Can anyone suggest any document for transferring data from my Personal Computer to S3 on AWS. I have about 50GB of data to be transferred and later use spark to analyze the data.

Answer 1

There are many free ways to upload files to S3, including:

• use the AWS console, go into S3, navigate to the S3 bucket, then use Actions | Upload
• use s3cmd
• use the awscli
• use Cloudberry Explorer

Answer 2

To upload from your local machine to S3, you can use tools like CyberDuck . Some times large uploads may get interrupted ... Tools like Cyberduck can resume an aborted update.

If you already have data onto an Amazon EC2 machine instance, then s3cmd works pretty well.
