Introduction

Amazon Simple Storage Service(S3) is one of the most used object storage services, and it is because of scalability, security, performance, and data availability. That means customers of any size or industries such as websites, mobile apps, IoT devices, enterprise applications, and IoT devices can use it to store any volume of data.

Amazon S3 provides easy-to-use management features so you can appropriately organize your data to fulfill your business requirements.

Many of us are using AWS s3 bucket on a daily basis; one of the most common challenges that are faced while working with cloud storage is syncing or uploading multiple objects at once. Yes, we can drag and drop or upload on a direct bucket page. Like the below image.

But the problem with this approach is if you’re uploading large objects over an unstable network if network errors occur you must have to restart uploading from the beginning.

Suppose you are uploading 2000+ files and you come to know that upload fails and your uploading these files from the last 1 hour, re-uploading has become a time-consuming process. So, to overcome this problem we have two solutions that we will discuss in the next sections.

Prerequisites

Installed AWS CLI

Upload Objects Using Multipart Upload API

Multipart upload opens the gate to upload a single object as a set of parts. Considering that it is possible to upload object parts independently and in any order.

In case the transmission fails in any section, it is possible to retransmit that section without affecting any other sections. So, it’s a good practice to use multipart uploads instead of uploading the object in a single operation.

Advantages of Using multipart upload:

Improved throughput – improve uploading speed

Fast recovery from any network issues: no need to re-upload from beginning

Resume and pause object uploads

It is possible to upload any object as you are creating it.

We can use multipart file uploading API with different technologies SDK or REST API for more details visit
