Service (Amazon S3). It allows you to serve your downloadable files from
Amazon storage.
It may be needed for those who are selling downloadable content, like eBooks
or music and want to provide reliable and fast download for their store.
It is especially useful when selling huge files, like videos. Storing content
in your Amazon S3 bucket rather than on your application server reduces load on
the server and overall costs.
This plugin is different than
[Amazon S3 Basic Integration|http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&extension_id=4946].
It has simplified installation and does not have Pro version (where you can
upload your files to S3 from Opencart).
Latest Version 1.0.5, verified with OpenCart versions 1.5.4.1, 1.5.2.1 and 1.5.1.1 (Should work on OpenCart version >= 1.4)
