title: Sonatype Nexus: How to use Amazon S3 as a storage for maven artifacts?
body: <p>I've got a task to examine how to make our internal Nexus installation (installed on CentOs/RHEL) to store artifacts in Amazon S3 cloud storage (or any other cheap cloud storage).</p>
  
  <p>So far, I had found only one solution - mount s3 as a file system, f.e. using s3fs. But I've met few problems using s3fs (beyond the scope of this topic).</p>
  
  <p>Maybe someone already succeeded in the search of the solution for similar task, and could share the knowledge?
  Or maybe anyone had better ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
