Strapi photos disappeared

I am using Heroku for deploy, mongoDB Atlas as Database and Strapi as Headless CMS. Heroku is already working with hobby Dyno. Yesterday I added some data into my database with some pictures and it was working fine but after 24 hours my Strapi doesn't display the pictures, I checked my DB and seems like I still have documents with photos. So if you encountered this problem before where is the problem and how did you sol it?

Heroku will delete all files stored on the server after each restart.

Check on documentation:

https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/getting-started/troubleshooting.html#why-is-my-app-s-database-and-uploads-resetting-on-paas

For file uploads, you will need to use one of the 3rd party providers such as Cloudinary or AWS S3.

For AWS S3 you can check the docs using a provider:

https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/development/plugins/upload.html#using-a-provider

For more providers you can search on npm:
