S3 Support for files

[nemo]

Added support for saving onto S3 instead of disk. Had to add an abstraction layer between the two file stores, nothing special. I thought it'll be a good addition.

This is primarily because we're thinking about running Batsd on heroku / production.

Wow, thanks! This is a great idea.

I'm going to hold off on merging it until I merge in the dev branch, which uses a more efficient file structure (and the benefits of it will be doubly felt on a datastore like S3). That's almost ready to go, just needs new documentation and migration instructions.

Okay, cool :)

I suppose I'll have to move some things around after your merge, since you're using a new system? Or will you be taking care of that :)

Either way works!

Is there any progress on this? I'd love to use the S3 functionality.
Otherwise I'll go ahead and use @nemo 's fork (hoping that transitioning to the new data structure will be possible).

cheers,

Any updates on this? Being able to run batsd on Heroku would be a great feature.
