Streaming Upload to AmazonS3 with boto or simples3 API

Is boto API (python) for amazons3 is streaming upload? there is another API called Simples3. i think no body is heard of it. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/simples3

it has a function call for streaming upload. but i would like to use boto if it has streaming upload option.

i know about Multipart in Boto. i dont want to use multipart because i do not want to split the files on disk and have one huge file and splits of it. i believe it's a wastage of space.

What would be the difference between boto and simples3

If by "streaming upload" you mean chunked transfer encoding, then I don't think boto, simples3 or any other package will support it because S3 doesn't support it. Boto has methods for streaming but they are only supported by Google Cloud Storage.
