Hi Pengtsen,
I noticed when configuring Amazon S3 integration withing the configuration module for UVG that different portals are using the same Amazon bucket.
Is it possible to configure UVG withing different portals to use their own portal specific Amazon S3 bucket?
I hope the below mentioned example gives you a clear view of what I try to achieve.
Currently
Portal 0: Bucket 0
Portal 1: Bucket 0
Portal 2: Bucket 0
Desired
Portal 0: Bucket 0
Portal 1: Bucket 1
Portal 2: Bucket 2
Thanks in advance, |
|

Hi Pengtsen,
That is a shame. Could this be something to consider for a new release?
It will give one detailed info on which portal uses the bucket the most and therefore, is responsible for a larger part of the costs for using Amazon S3. |

| So on a single installation all portals must use the same bucket? That should certainly be changed. Each instance of the module should be able to specify it's own bucket. |

I haven't started using this feature but am planning to and it must work with multiple portals.
How does it affect the use of the module if each portal uses the same S3 bucket? Do the different portals see each other's files or is it just a technicality behind the scenes?
Regards,
Rbo

Hi PengtsenR,
What happens when users from a different portal, but with the same username, start uploading videos?
I noticed that, within the bucket I use, the username is used for storing the videos. I know that the URL + filename will be stored within the database.
How if one has multiple portals within the same DNN installation which should use a different registration key from AWS because one doesn't want to give access to all of the buckets. This way a host needs to configure all the UVG configuration modules.

hmm.. the way I was planning on it was to use my own single S3 account to provide the resources for all portals, and I think that will work fine because I personally manage and configure all modules everywhere.
But I think Marc has a point if the module is managed in different portals by different people. They would certainly have an issue with having to share another person's S3 account.. especially if there's no way to determine if one portal spends 90% of the resource and another only 10%. |

| I remember the s3 integration wizard is only available to host users, so normal users in other portals can't use it. |

I've had a look at my S3 folders and it seems that the 'user name' folder structure doesn't make much more than an asthetic mater. I see that individual files are given long names 'agu-fa556of-haofhi35-ad6fh-33ois-5dhdf.swf' so I can't imagine there being a cross-over with another file.
But I could be missing something.
Is the problem simply the ACCESS to the S3 folder structure via an application that requires the key?
If a vote is taken, I'd go for being able to assign the upload folders to each instance of the S3 uploader. |

| daniel, so you are suggesting to upload files to separated buckets for each portal too? |

I remember the s3 integration wizard is only available to host users, so normal users in other portals can't use it. This is very much true, but this also means that when a host user has set up a multi portal environment for other users (eg hosting company), they will have to determine the S3 account to be used. There doesn't seem to be a way to divide the cost over the portals which have uploaded & watched the videos (maybe I have missed this).
Also non hosting companies with multi portals would like to be able to determine which portal is the cost driver. For instance, to be able to diversify the charges for advertisements on a site (this will be mine option).
Therefore, I would it be great to have an option for multiple S3 accounts, which suits hosting companies, and the the ability to choose from different buckets will enable to detect which portal consumes the most. The polluter pays!!

| Marc, your opinion is to have separated s3 account for each portal, this post was talking about to have separated buckcts for each portals, so I would like to hear from more peoples to see which is going to be supported. |

Hi Pengtsen R,
You're right, I believe that this would the scenario which covers it all. However, I will settle for the seperate buckets for a S3 account.
