We would suggest using [MediaCache for VOD](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-scale-video-on-demand-streaming-with-media-cache#mediacacheconf_sourcesadds3) in AWS. The user guide for the Media Cache feature of Wowza Streaming Engine provides numerous configuration and playback examples which will show you to access you VOD streams in AWS: [https://www.wowza.com/resources/WowzaStreamingEngine\_MediaCacheUsersGuide.pdf](https://www.wowza.com/resources/WowzaStreamingEngine_MediaCacheUsersGuide.pdf) ---

I want to integrate wowza with my PHP website to directly stream on the website. For the data, i want it to be pulled from S3. I am also using EC2 [AWS for PHP](https://www.cloudways.com/blog/host-php-on-aws-cloud/) website and wowza. Is there any guide for connecting s3? ---
