Is there a simple way to write to a file geodatabase using an S3 bucket?

I'm looking at 2019 beta. Is there a way that an S3 block can be seamless when writing to a ESRI file geodatabase, or are multiple steps involved that require creating the FGDB and then zipping it up for transfer. I'm not seeing a way using the S3 connector. Obviously I would rather the most seamless and simplest method...more like a virtual file/folder location parameter using the saved web connection and credentials.

I think you'll need at least two steps:

  1. FeatureWriter to write the zipped file geodatabase
  2. S3Uploader to upload the zip to S3

OK thanks very much. FYI, I was using the S3Connector in 2019 RC. I guess I was dreaming of a S3 connection in the writer.
