proxy to save and cache media files in s3 on request?

Question

Is it possible to use some sort of media proxy cache to store videos in an s3 bucket?

So that when you request https://bucket.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/?https://domain.com/media/file.mp4

It copies the file to the s3 bucket on the first request and then returns the file on every future request?

Answer

You should use a CDN like Amazon CloudFront (https://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/) to do exactly that.
Amazon CloudFront caches the content at the edge closer to the end users so the request does not have to go to the Origin Server.
You can still use S3 for your media repository and have the content requested thru Amazon CloudFront.
