Use accelerate links to download an object?

[Matiquiel]

Is there a way to use the s3-accelerate endpoint? Im trying to use the accelerate endpoint hoping it improves my download speeds, my users are experiencing 10kb/s downlaod speeds and its killing me.
Aaprently s3-accelerate should help with this, but TransferUtility has no params for this feature and the link to the object cannot be provided. I can always use a 3rd party client to download the files but would be cool to use this SDK.

@Matiquiel Are you referring to Configuring fast, secure file transfers using Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration? If yes, it specifies that:

• Transfer Acceleration must be enabled on the bucket.
• To access the bucket that is enabled for Transfer Acceleration, you must use the endpoint bucketname.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com. Or, use the dual-stack endpoint bucketname.s3-accelerate.dualstack.amazonaws.com to connect to the enabled bucket over IPv6.

Here is the possible solution (please test it):

• When using TransferUtility, there are 2 overloaded constructors that accept AmazonS3Client object (refer, TransferUtility (IAmazonS3) and TransferUtility(IAmazonS3, TransferUtilityConfig), and example here).
• While constructing AmazonS3Client object, you could use constructor AmazonS3Client(AmazonS3Config)
• Amazon.S3.AmazonS3Config allows you to set UseAccelerateEndpoint. Set it's value to true to enable S3 transfer acceleration (.NET SDK example here).

Thanks,
Ashish
