S3 Exporter

The S3 exporter will collect the data and create a new file in a specific folder everytime we send the data.

Everytime the FlushInterval or MaxEventInMemory is reached a new file will be added to S3.

info

If for some reason the S3 upload fails, we will keep the data in memory and retry to add the next time we reach FlushInterval or MaxEventInMemory.
