Would love to see a plugin to enable all file uploads to use an AWS S3 bucket for storage.

We're using AWS Elastic Beanstalk (EB) to run the q2a instance, and currently when we push a new application instance, any files on disk that have changed since last application instance launch are automatically deleted from the server.

I like the way AWS EB does this, and I'd like to keep it this way.

We use S3 for storage of dynamic content now (and MySQL to reference the files), so would be a great addon for Q2A to do something similar.
Q2A version: 1.7.2

Good idea. This would be doable by overriding the function qa_write_blob_file.

It will be better to write plugin for this kind of task. Also you can configure CloudFront CDN which will help to load site faster.
