rxs3 (AWS S3)

Description

@bottlenose/rxs3 is part of the Bottlenose project. It allows for the upload and download of s3 files as streams (instead of a single larger HTTP payload). Why?

• This is very important when working with big files. (Even a 1MB file can take significant time to upload.)

• With some filetypes (like CSV, certain JSON formats and audio) this enables processing data immediately even if the full file takes longer to download.

• It is also useful with data streams (audio, big csv files, video, human DNA, etc).

• This approach can conserve memory since only a small chunk of the file needs to be held in memory at any given time.

• This approach can handle connectivity failures. Imagine downloading a big 50GB file and losing connection after downloading 49GB of it. No fun!
