Learning about file uploads
Uploading files from your computer or a local system to the cloud is common as you develop applications. You will need to upload static data files, HTML files, code, database snapshots, PDF files, logs for analysis, and so on.
Each one of these file types may need different treatment based on the frequency of use, security requirements, user type, and other factors. For this reason, different methods are best for different use cases. For example, if you are uploading a static HTML file to display on your website, you can use one way to upload the file. But if the file that is getting uploaded is a bank statement that is being uploaded by one of your website users, you will want to use a completely different method.
Fortunately, AWS provides a variety of ways to upload files that cover the majority, if not all, of the different use cases you may have. We'll try to cover most of them.
