A single operation upload is "traditional" upload where you upload the file in one part.
A single operation upload can upload a file up to 5 GB in size, however any file over 100 MB should use multipart upload.

Multipart upload allows you to upload a single object as a set of parts.
Allows for uploading parts of a file concurrently.
Allows for stopping/resuming file uploads.
If transmission of any part fails, you can retransmit that part without affecting other parts.
After all parts of your object are uploaded, Amazon S3 assembles these parts and creates the object.
Required for objects 5 Gb and large, and highly suggested for use when objects are 100 MB and larger.
Can be used to upload a file up to 5 TB in size.

AWS Import/Export gives the ability to take on-premise data and physically snail mail it to AWS (using a device that you own).
AWS will import the data to either S3, EBS, or Glacier within one business day of the physical device arriving at AWS.
Benefits:
- Off-site backup policy.
- Quickly migrate LARGE amounts of data to the cloud (up to 16 TB per job).
- Disaster recovery (AWS will even take S3 data and ship it back to you).

Connects local data center software appliances to cloud based storage such as Amazon S3.

Create storage volumes and mount them as iSCSI devices on the on-premise servers.
The gateway will store the data written to this volume in Amazon S3 and will cache frequently access data on-premise in the storage device.

Store all the data locally (on-premise) in storage volumes.
Gateway will periodically take snapshots of the data as incremental backups and stores them on Amazon S3.
