Hi Corina,

This is a great question. I haven't tried what you are suggesting, but I'd like to highlight a community module which provides a similar option.

The JDBC Config module (http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/community/jdbcconfig/index.html) lets one run a GeoServer where the configuration is in a database instead of xml files.

If you are trying to solve the problem of coordinating GeoServer configuration between multiple instances of GeoServer running on a cloud provider, this module may provide some options. If the module doesn't work for you, it might provide some ideas about how to create a similar one for S3 (or more generally Hadoop filesystems).

Generally, this is an active area of research and work for the companies which provide commercial support for GeoServer (http://geoserver.org/support/).

Cheers,

Jim

Hello,

Has anyone shared the GeoServer data folder on a S3 bucket with GeoServer
being installed on a S2 instance and managed to access the data folder? If
yes, what configurations did you do inside the web.xml file to point to the
S3 bucket? I have tried different approaches without any success. Or what
approach is best to use? So far for me works to copy a file from a S3 bucket
using the AWS command line interface to the shared data folder in the S2
instance. But maybe there is a direct way to access the data folder from a
S3 bucket.

Thank you,
Corina Tudorache
