Overview

Media libraries grow quickly. Images, videos and documents pile up on the web server and eat disk space. This plugin sends those files to a cloud storage provider and delivers them from there, which can be done through a CDN such as Amazon CloudFront. Your server no longer has to store and serve every file itself.

You connect the plugin to your storage account with access keys, then offload your existing library in the background. You can pause and resume the transfer and follow its progress on the settings page. It also suits setups with several environments or load-balanced servers, since they can all read the same media files from one place in the cloud.

Features

  • Three cloud storage providers: Offload media to Amazon S3, DigitalOcean Spaces or Google Cloud Storage, which frees disk space on your local server and keeps files in one cloud location.
  • CDN delivery: Serve your media through Amazon CloudFront or another CDN, so files reach visitors from the cloud instead of from your own web server.
  • Background library migration: Offload your whole existing media library in the background after connecting with access keys. You can pause and resume the process whenever you need to.
  • Optional local file removal: Choose to delete local copies of media once they are in the cloud, which keeps server storage small. You can also keep local files beside the cloud copies.
  • Versioning support: Use your storage provider's versioning to back up media files, so earlier versions or deleted files can be restored if something goes wrong.
  • Shared media across environments: Let development, staging and production sites share a single cloud media library, which removes the need to sync files between them.
  • Load-balanced setups: Every server in a load-balanced WordPress setup reads the same media from cloud storage, so no server is left with missing or mismatched files.
  • Progress monitoring: Watch offloading progress from the settings page and pause or resume uploads at any point during the transfer.

Best for

  • Blogs with large, growing media libraries
  • Online stores serving many product images
  • Developers running staging and production environments
