How to integrate AEM 6.0 with Amazon S3 ?

[Former Community Member]

We are testing AEM 6.0(6.0.0.20140509).

We want to integrate AEM 6.0 with Amazon S3.

As the AEM help document, there should be an Amazon S3 Connector package.

But I can't find it in the Adobe Package Share.

Any help would be appreciated.

regards

Hi Heart,

The Amazon S3 Connector is being released with an upcoming featurepack, so it is not available for 6.0 at this time. I will open an issue with documentation to have this updated. Apologies for the inconvenience. Please contact Adobe Sales for more information on the connector.

Regards,

You can develop your own Custom AEM service (that is one of the benefits of AEM - the ability to write a custom service) that interacts with this:

http://aws.amazon.com/sdkforjava/

According to this topic, there are Java APIs for many AWS services including Amazon S3. So you can write a custom AEM service that wraps these Java APIs. We have many community articles that talk about how to create custom AEM services. If you are not familiar with creating a custom AEM service -- see:

There are more advanced ones - see the community page at the end of this article. 

Add these Amazon APIs to the Maven POM file and then be sure to create a bundle fragment that contains these JAR files to the AEM OSGi service layer. For information on how to do that -- see this community article - it wraps the Simple JSON jar as an example:

Hi Heart,

I'm not sure when the new featurepack will be released, but you can contact Adobe Sales and they can tell you when it will be available. We'll definitely post an announcement about the featurepack availability when it releases.

Cheers,
