Bulk upload large images to cloudinary - cloudinary

Is there a way to bulk upload images to my cloudinary account?
I am looking to import 100 images of 3MB each at a time.
Thank you.

You can use Cloudinary's upload API to upload images one by one. Here is a sample upload code in Python.
If your images are already in a public location, you can specify the remote HTTP URL as the file parameter instead of sending the actual image's data. This allows much faster uploading. If your images are in an Amazon S3 bucket, images can be fetched by Cloudinary directly from S3 for reaching even higher upload performance.
You can also run your upload code using multiple processes in parallel for quickly uploading multiple files simultaneously. In our Ruby on Rails client library we included a migration tool.
Currently there is no dedicated API method of Cloudinary for performing bulk upload of images.

Easiest way is to use the remote API - and Just pass the url reference to the account and Cloudinary will connect to the image and download it into your account.

What is the best way to store and download up to 5000 mp3 files for a react native app?

I am creating a type of flashcard application using react-native. The flashcard decks can contain up to 5000 mp3 files. I want the user to be able to download an entire deck when they first use it.
Currently, I am downloading each file individually using Google cloud public storage but this is brutally slow and some downloads timeout. Is there a place where I can download an entire folder of mp3 files instead of downloading each of them individually? I have seen that you can do it using AWS S3 but I have no idea how to do this from the client in react native. Thanks.

How to upload multiples images from ftp media server to cludinary?

I'm looking for a solution to load multiples images from ftp media server to cloudinary. I searched on the net and I found these links:
How can I bulk upload my images?
Bulk upload large images to cloudinary
Data upload options:
If your images are already publicly available online, you can specify their remote HTTP or HTTPS URLs instead of uploading the actual data. In this case, Cloudinary will fetch the image from its remote URL for you. This option allows for a much faster migration of your existing images
There is no information about uploading images from an ftp media server or something like that. All the available solutions are using a script and then upload images one by one.In my case I have on my server many folders of images and in each folder there are many sub-folders and I have about 10000 images.How can I do this?
You can upload to Cloudinary using an FTP source like this (in PHP):
\Cloudinary\Uploader::upload('ftp://username:password#ftp.mydomain.com/my_image.jpg');

Where to change for external image storage in Opencart?

I am planning to store all my images on S3 Amazon service. Opencart system uses 4 different image sizes. Which one is better for website page load and optimize opencart; resizing all images and upload to S3 or just uploading main image to S3 and let opencart image cache resize the other picture sizes ?
Thanks
Upload normal images into s3 storage and give the storage path in config.php , opencart automatically does the resizing while rendering
I would use a cdn plugin it solves the headache for you.

Uploading image to "buffer"

I'm developing an application that uses (lots) of image processing.
The general overview of the system is:
User Uploads photos to server (Raw photo, with FULL resolution)
Server Fetches new photos, and apply image processing on them
Server resizes image and serves those photos (delete the full one?)
My current situation is that I have almost no expertise in image hosting nor large data uploading and managing.
What I plan to do is:
User uploads directly from Browser to Amazon S3 (Full Image)
User notifies my server, and add the uploaded file to the Queue for my workers
When worker receives a job, it downloads the full image (from Amazon), and process it. Updates database, and then re-uploads the image to Cloudinary (resize in server?)
Use the hosted image on Cloudinary from now on.
My doubts are regarding the process time. I don't want to upload it directly to my server, because it would require a lot of traffic and create a bottleneck, so using Amazon S3 would reduce that. And hosting images with Amazon would not be that good, since they don't provide specific API's to deal with images as Cloudinary does.
Working with separate servers for uploading, and only triggering my server when upload is done by the browser is ok? Using Cloudinary for hosting images is also something that makes sense? Sending to Amazon, instead of my own server (direct upload to my server) should be avoided?
(This is more a guidance/design question)
Why wouldn't you prefer uploading directly to Cloudinary?
The image can be uploaded directly from the browser to your Cloudinary account, without any further servers involved. Cloudinary then notifies you about the uploaded image and its details, then you can perform all the image processing in the cloud via Cloudinary. You can either manipulate the image while keeping the original, or you may choose to replace the original with the manipulated one.

How to upload the diff of a file using file_put api in dropbox

How can I upload the diff of a file using file_put api in dropbox? I am wondering would dropbox provide support for uploading or downloading just the diff of the file.
I am not using dropbox sync tool.
Currently there is no way to send or receive only a diff, the smallest unit is the whole file.
