I need to send backup files of ~2TB to S3. I guess the most hassle-free option would be Linux scp command (have difficulty with s3cmd and don't want an overkill java/RoR to do so).
However I am not sure whether it is possible: How to use S3's private and public keys with scp, and don't know what would be my destination IP/url/path?
I appreciate your hints.
Download WinSCP for free. WinSCP is a free SFTP, SCP, S3, WebDAV, and FTP client for Windows. WinSCP is a popular free SFTP and FTP client for Windows, a powerful file manager that will improve your productivity. It offers an easy to use GUI to copy files between a local and remote computer using multiple protocols: Amazon S3, FTP, FTPS, SCP, SFTP or WebDAV. Because Amazon S3 manages object timestamps, be sure to disable WinSCP timestamp settings before you perform file transfers. To do so, in the WinSCP Transfer settings dialog box, disable the Set permissions upload option and the Preserve timestamp common option. WinSCP (Windows Secure Copy) is a free and open-source SFTP, FTP, WebDAV, Amazon S3 and SCP client. This article will serve as an informative guide and give you a clear understanding of how to perform a silent installation of WinSCP from the command line using the EXE installer.
You can't SCP.
The quickest way, if you don't mind spending money, is probably just to send it to them on a disk and they'll put it up there for you. See their Import/Export service.
As of 2015, SCP/SSH is not supported (and probably never will be for the reasons mentioned in the other answers).
Official AWS tools for copying files to/from S3:
Winscp Aws
command line tool (
pip3 install awscli
– note credentials need to be specified, I prefer via environment variables:AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
,AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
).and an rsync-like command:
Web interface:
Install gimp on mac. Non-AWS methods
Any other solutions depend on third-party executables (e.g. Focus 1 2 – add depth to your photos. botosync, jungledisk…) which can be great as long as they are supported. But third party tools come and go as years go by and your scripts will have a shorter shelf life.
Winscp Script Amazon S3
Here's just the thing for this, boto-rsync. From any Linux box, install boto-rsync and then use this to transfer /local/path/ to your_bucket/remote/path/:
The paths can also be files.
For a S3-compatible provider other than AWS, use –endpoint: High sierra compatibility checker.
Why don't you scp it to an EBS volume and then use s3cmd from there? As long as your EBS volume and s3 bucket are in the same region, you'll only be charged for inbound data charges once (from your network to the EBS volume)
I've found that once within the s3 network, s3cmd is much more reliable and the data transfer rate is far higher than direct to s3. Acrobat update 11 0 22.
I guess you can mount S3 within EC2 (http://michaelaldridge.info/post/12086788604/mounting-s3-within-an-ec2-instance) and do the SCP!
There is an amazing tool called Dragon Disk. Fat format 32. It works as a sync tool even and not just as plain scp.

The Guide to setup the amazon s3 is provided here and after setting it up you can either copy paste the files from your local machine to s3 or setup an automatic sync. The User Interface is very similiar to WinSCP or Filezilla.

for our AWS backups we use a combination of duplicity and trickle duplicity for rsync and encryption and trickle to limit the upload speed Can you run imovie on windows.
