The HDFS Sink will function as a S3 sink as well, we have done that. But
sometimes we had HTTP Connectivity timeout issues with S3 from the EC2
where Flume was running, so we moved away from S3 and used HDFS for
production.

Make sure the IAM role attached to the EC2 that is running Flume has the
write permissions to S3 bucket you are writing to.

I am not aware of a separate S3 sink.
