Find answers to sftp cloud based service from the expert. There is a scalable cloud solution. You can create a new Amazon AWS acount and get a free year of a linux. With AWS Transfer Family, you get access to a file transfer protocol-enabled server in AWS without the need to run any server infrastructure. You can use this service to migrate your file transfer-based workflows to AWS while maintaining your end users' clients and configurations as is. AWS Transfer for SFTP Today we are launching AWS Transfer for SFTP, a fully-managed, highly-available SFTP service. You simply create a server, set up user accounts, and associate the server with one or more Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) buckets. You have fine-grained control over user identity, permissions, and keys. Hello Hackerman. It is not a duplicate question in that sense because I am not trying to mount an S3 bucket as the root folder for an sftp server. I am trying to eliminate the sftp server altogether, i.e., having users to upload files directly into S3 'folders' inside a bucket. – Marcio Buss Dec 27 '16 at 17:03.
With WinSCP you can easily upload and manage files on your Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instance/server over SFTP protocol. Click o tron.
Before starting you should:
- Have WinSCP installed;
- Have Amazon EC2 instance running;
- Have enabled inbound SSH traffic from your IP address to your instance;
- Have your key pair ready;
Collect information about your EC2 instance:
- Host name: Check Public DNS column on Instances page of Amazon EC2 console. Note that the public DNS may change when instance is restarted.
- Host key fingerprint: On the first connect you will be prompted to verify server host key.
- You can locate key fingerprint in server's initial start log, when host keys are generated.1 Use Actions > Instance Settings > Get System Log command on Instances page of Amazon EC2 console:
The format of host key display in the log may differ with distribution or its version.
Alternatively useaws ec2 get-console-output
command. - If you did not save the fingerprint on the first instance run, but you have another EC2 instance that you can connect to safely (you know its fingerprints), you can connect to the target instance using private IP from the trusted instance. Staying within private Amazon network keeps you safe from man-in-the-middle attacks. When on the trusted instance terminal, you can use following commands to collect fingerprints:
- If you do not have another trusted instance, you can create new temporary instance, just for the purpose of collecting the keys. First find keys for the new temporary instance, using it's initial start log. Then collect keys of the target instance by connecting to it from the temporary instance. After that you can discard the temporary instance.

- Press Advanced button to open Advanced site settings dialog and go to SSH > Authentication page.
- In Private key file box select the

private key file. WinSCP will need to convert the key to its.ppk
format (you can then use the converted.ppk
key for example with PuTTYSSH client). - Submit Advanced site settings dialog with OK button.
- Save your site settings using Save button.
- Login using Login button.
- Verify the host key by comparing fingerprints with those collected before (see above).
If you are managing a large amount of servers, and it is not feasible for you to save a site for each of them in WinSCP, consider using the user script Injecting SFTP or FTP URL to a page (Amazon EC2 management console). How much money does minecraft cost.

Note that WinSCP supports a direct access to S3 storage.
If you need to access/manage files stored on Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) bucket via SFTP, there are two options. You can use a native managed SFTP service recently added by Amazon (which is easier to set up). Or you can mount the bucket to a file system on a Linux server and access the files using the SFTP as any other files on the server (which gives you greater control).
- Managed SFTP Service
- Mounting Bucket to Linux Server
- To create a Managed SFTP server for S3, in your Amazon AWS Console, go to AWS Transfer for SFTP and create a new server (you can keep server options to their defaults for a start).
- In SFTP server page, add a new SFTP user (or users).
- Permissions of users are governed by an associated AWS role in IAM service. To create a role which has a full access to all your S3 buckets, just create an S3 service role with AmazonS3FullAccess policy.
The role must have trust relationship totransfer.amazonaws.com
. On a role page, select Trust relationships tab, click Edit trust relationship button, and in the access control policy JSON document, changeStatement[].Principal.Service
value totransfer.amazonaws.com
:1 - Generate a key pair for your new user and paste public key fingerprint to SSH public keys box (use the format you would otherwise use for OpenSSH
authorized_keys
file).
- Permissions of users are governed by an associated AWS role in IAM service. To create a role which has a full access to all your S3 buckets, just create an S3 service role with AmazonS3FullAccess policy.
