I use archive_command to send WAL to S3. It works fine. I do gzip
them before uploading, as they are usually pretty compressible.
I use a lifecycle rule on the bucket to automatically delete ones
older than I might need.
It's not the fastest process in the world, and replay on our
reporting server does occasionally fall behind, but I think that's
true of WAL replay in general as a serialized process.
