Description

Sissle and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) work in conjunction. The Amazon S3 service provides a farm of interconnected servers with location in the United States, Northern Caligornia, Europe, Singapore and Japan. If a file is sent to Amazon S3 it is stored on multiple servers and multiple sites to ensure complete reliability.

Amazon S3 does not provide client software to communicate between user and Amazon S3. Update: Amazon now provides the Amazon Console accessable through a browser.
Sissle is a client program which provides this communication. Sissle lives in your PC and communicates with Amazon S3 through the internet. Sissle is purchased with a one of payment.
