Example connection with AWS S3 service

This repository contains a simple application that connects to the AWS S3 service. The application demonstrates how to upload and download objects from an S3 Bucket. For testing purposes, a basic frontend is provided, lacking extensive functionalities but verifying the proper functioning of the S3 connection.

A faux database has been implemented to store, retrieve, and delete objects. Additionally, it maintains links to images stored in the S3 bucket.

The application is built using the following frameworks and technologies:

• Spring: Boot, Web
• AWS S3
• Maven
