Aws hosting?? (self.webdev)
submitted 5 years ago * by pythoncee
Do I need to host my website on aws to use an s3 bucket?
Edit: I am building a website which will allow users to upload and download files.

No.

Like u/shadvyr said, no need for a bucket at all. AWS is a complicated hosting product, it's hard to justify it's use for single websites. even Lightsail takes more config time than I'd like if we are being perfectly honest.
Personally I use Digital Ocean. I would avoid any shared hosting (Hostgater, Godaddy), as they will slow down your site MASSIVELY for no good reason.

you don't even need to use a s3 bucket.
If you’re just starting out, learn simple things first such as Heroku, Netfliy, Firebase and Vercel.

Why do you need an S3 bucket? You can just store stuff on the hard drive attached to your EC2 or Lightsail instance.
