Amazon S3 [Apr. 9th, 2006|08:43 pm]
Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
Amazon S3 is kicking my butt. It's mostly because I don't have the strongest understanding of UTF character sets. Maybe a bit more study of the Perl and C# code samples will help me figure it out -- they can't hurt anyway.

S3 -- and other web-enabled storage systems -- is very interesting. When you have this kind of system that can store files and call them via HTTP requests; a system that has usage-metered costs for bandwidth and storage; and also has the kind of bandwidth that Amazon (and Google) represents: you're looking at a potential "asset server" for privately owned Second Life sims. At the very least, it's a good model to follow if you're going to build you own, local "asset server," but S3 is an ideal service for someone who wanted to run a sim and not have to maintain a database back-end.

There's not much people upload with the OPML editor that they don't already upload to Second Life -- in my time poking at the OPML editor it was mostly text files and images.

But for now, it's kicking my butt soundly.
