Description

CKAN used to support direct upload to various services, and they were deprecated in favour of the filestore.

It would be nice now that the storage solution is a lot cleaner to now add back in the ability to write directly to cloud storage providers without routing the request through CKAN, or relying on ckanext-s3archive.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by reviewing CKAN's filestore, the previously deprecated direct-upload support, and ckanext-s3archive to understand the existing boundaries. Before implementation, clarify which cloud providers and upload flow are in scope; done should mean direct provider uploads work without routing data through CKAN.
