Stream File Uploads to S3 Object Storage and Save Money

This is the fourth post in a series all about uploading files for the web. In the previous posts, we covered uploading files using just HTML, uploading files using JavaScript, and how to receive file uploads on a Node.js server.

  1. Upload files with HTML
  2. Upload files with JavaScript
  3. Receive uploads in Node.js (Nuxt.js)
  4. Optimize storage costs with Object Storage
  5. Optimize performance with a CDN
  6. Secure uploads with malware scans

This post is going to take a step back and explore architectural changes to reduce costs when adding file uploads to our applications.
