Question: Migrating Existing Site to Use External Storage or CDN

We recently implemented an NFS Server + Client setup, which successfully expanded our disk space without downtime — and the change is permanent. It’s been a real lifesaver under the circumstances.

That said, I do have a technical question for the UNA team or anyone with experience in this area:

As we know, CDN and external storage solutions (like AWS S3, Azure Blob, or other CDN vendors) are commonly used to handle media files and improve performance.
In our case, the platform wasn’t originally configured to separate /storage or media directories to an external source. Given that, what are the odds or best practices for migrating an existing UNA site — already in production — to use external or CDN-based storage instead of local disk?

I understand this wasn’t the ideal setup from the start, but now that the system is stable again, we’d like to explore more scalable and performance-oriented options going forward.

Any guidance, examples, or recommended steps for doing such a migration safely would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Chris
