I've just posted the first release of the [S3Blobs Play Framework Module][1]. This module makes it easy to upload and download files from [Amazon S3][2] from a JPA entity in a Play Framework Java application. This module is based on [a POC that I did a few months ago][3], the JPA stuff from [Tim Kral][4], and the modularization done by [Roderik van der Veer][5]. For more details on how to use the module check out [the documentation][6], [my tutorial][7] (slightly out of date now), and [the source code][8]. This makes it really easy to save file uploads to an external system when [running Play! apps on Heroku][9]. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
