Python 2.7 boto library (to install: sudo pip install boto)

Recommended::

gevent library to parallelize uploads to S3 (to install: sudo pip install gevent)

For usage overview:

export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<secret from above account>
python untar-to-s3.py web-assets-1.2.23.tar.gz --bucket my-bucket-name --prefix production
