S3 Upload the Parts for a Multipart Upload

See more Amazon S3 (new) Examples

This example uploads a large file in parts. The multipart upload needs to have been first initiated prior to uploading the parts.

See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/mpUploadUploadPart.html for more information about uploading parts.
