Summarize Functionality

S3 is now a supported backup destination in SQL Server 2022, similar to backup to Azure blob storage URL.

1. For Backup-DbaDatabase: support backing up directly to S3 URL(s)
2. For commands that Restore backups (Restore-DbaDatabase and Invoke-DbaAdvancedRestore), support restoring directly from S3 URL(s)
3. 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?

Yes
