How to dock AWS S3 storage as where uploaded image and files are placed

How to dock AWS S3 storage as where uploaded image and files are placed?

I see the configuration in homeserver.yaml as follows:
media_store_path: "/var/lib/matrix-synapse/media"

Using local filesystem to store media is not a good idea,
the security and extensibility are not good, so I want to use AWS S3 or google storage to do this,
but I don't know how to config it.

Anyone can help?
thx!

That is currently not supported.
Either you find a way to mount S3 or google storage on a system level or you implement the access to it (preferably as a PR) into synapse.

The first is sth. that is not relevant to synapse.
The second is a duplicate of #1749
