A variety of questions have come up from Alteryx users that all have the same answer:

• The Alteryx Gallery will only allow me to upload about 100MB of data, how do I upload more?
• I need to change my data daily/hourly/monthly for my Gallery module, how do I do that without re-uploading my entire app every time?
• How do I persist data from run to run in a Gallery module?
• How do I share data in Alteryx Desktop with coworkers/clients/partners without sending huge files around?

The answer to all of these questions is to use the Amazon S3 tools. What is S3?

I get a lot of the credit for Alteryx – the product. Having been the original author and still the lead architect that makes sense, but there are a whole host of people who deserve the credit as much or more than I do.
