How can I use cloud storage with Django?

You can use cloud storage in Django by integrating services like AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure Blob Storage.

What are the steps to set up AWS S3 with Django?

First, install the boto3 library, then configure your AWS credentials and set up your Django settings to use S3.

Can you show me a sample code for uploading files to S3?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import boto3
from django.core.files.storage import default_storage

s3 = boto3.client('s3')

def upload_file_to_s3(file):
    s3.upload_fileobj(file, 'your-bucket-name', file.name)

What about handling media files in Django?

You can set the DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE in your settings.py to use S3 for media files, ensuring they are stored in the cloud.
