How does your SaaS deal with file uploads/management?

Question

I've found myself repeating code, and often relying on the same vendor every time (AWS S3) for file management. I have yet to find a good approach to file search or permissioning without a lot of boilerplate.I am curious what patterns other dev teams are using to manage files within their saas product to allow for multi-tenancy, permissioning, sharing, searchability etc.

What&rsquo;s wrong with boilerplate? Boilerplate can be automated (Terraform, etc)Easiest alternative I&rsquo;ve found so far is AWS Transfer Family for managed SFTP, which customers can use to dump things directly into an S3 bucket you manage.I&rsquo;ve also heard files.com mentioned as a good solution.
