How do I connect the Amazon S3 to my WordPress website using plugins?

Amazon S3 is a cloud storage solution that lets you store practically inexhaustible amounts of data. A single upload file might be as large as 5TB. Using the AWS Amazon S3 File Uploader, 

you may build public and private signed URLs for submitted files with set expiration durations and share them with users. Links can be exchanged via email or simply from a browser. You can also save money on storage by using the AWS Console to set up automatic file deletion.

What are the benefits of storing your WordPress site on Amazon S3?

Reduced requests to the server– You’ll reduce page load times because your server won’t have to provide media files (or maybe assets).

More affordable storage — If you’re nearing your server’s storage restrictions, I’m almost certain S3’s storage pricing will be less expensive than what your host will charge.

Detached media — It’s a lot easier to move your WordPress site around now that your media assets are separated from it (like between hosts). You’re essentially just copying and pasting the PHP scripts, which takes up very little space.

Scalability — Because Amazon S3 powers the entire Internet (well, that’s a stretch), you can be assured that whatever happens to your site will be handled by Amazon.
