This is an updated S3 compatible remote destination handler for Backup and Migrate 3.x.

Although Back and Migrate does come with some s3 support, it uses a very old, though stable, s3 php curl library that's pretty much hardcoded to use Amazon AWS.

By using this module you will be able to use the 2.x AWS SDK for PHP, as well as using any other S3 compatible services, like dreamhost.

The choice for 2.x of the AWS PHP SDK is because 3.x requires PHP 5.5.

Besides using Amazon's own PHP SDK, differences for the built-in S3 destination handler are:
- Allows to set an S3 host to use a different S3 provider.
- Allows for advanced settings like timeout, proxy and minimum part size of the multipart upload.
