Drupal Site - Upload Files to Amazon Cloud

Essentially the task has two components: 1) write a Drupal module to interface Amazon Web Services as needed 2) assist in setting up a test server (just to see a first time config) Idea of the module: - when a user wants to upload a file to our website the file is actually never sent to our servers but goes DIRECTLY to the cloud - locally we just save the reference to the file and when a download is requested the user will be serviced from the cloud - additional function: can be set to "local mode" files are stored in Drupal file system for development purposes - optional function (to be discussed): a thumbnail is created for image files
