Mediawiki AWS Extension

MediaWiki AWS extension enables uploads to AWS S3.

The extension page (and corresponding GitHub) have the best information about configuration.

This requires maintaining and AWS S3 bucket for the wiki images, and granting the wiki EC2 instance access to the bucket.

Once this is in place and the extension is configured in LocalSettings.php.

AWS storage

Created an S3 bucket named dbarchowsky-wiki-uploads to serve as a location for user files for the wiki.

Options:

  • AWS S3, which works with the Mediawiki S3 extension.
  • Amazon EFS and EBS.
    • EFS is scalable physical storage which can be shared among multiple EC2 instances.
    • EBS is physical storage that is linked typically to a single EC2 instance.
