AWS S3 Storage Gateway or Application services API Gateway?

Question

i want let users upload and download some files. So what is a differenece between S3 Storage Gateway and API Gateway in application services? which one should i use to let user upload and download files ?

Answer 1

Storage Gateway is for connecting S3 to your corporate data center. This is not at all what you are looking for.

API Gateway has a upload/download payload size limit of 10MB . I recommend creating a service on API Gateway that uses a Lambda function to create S3 pre-signed URLs , for the purpose of allowing your users temporary access to upload or download a file directly to/from S3.
