S3 is now a supported backup destination in SQL Server 2022, similar to backup to Azure blob storage URL.
For Backup-DbaDatabase: support backing up directly to S3 URL(s)
For commands that Restore backups (Restore-DbaDatabase and Invoke-DbaAdvancedRestore), support restoring directly from S3 URL(s)
For commands that list/find databases, verify that s3 URLS are accepted as input/output: Find-DbaBackup, Format-DbaBackupInformation, Get-DbaBackupInformation, probably others.
Is there a command that is similiar or close to what you are looking for?
Has there been any update to this? This would be helpful in the dbatools platform. I noticed the Ola SQL maintenance solutions also just recently made support for AWS S3 backups officially available.

Just starting to investigate the work involved. We're open to starting to implement some of this functionality but would like to discuss first.
