i’m deploying a django application using heroku and AWS S3 for static files, the problem is that i haven’t found information on how to link the Postgres DB of heroku with the S3 service.

I’ve already set the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, S3_BUCKET, Add CORS Configuration, but my question is how can i link the S3 storage with the postgres DB of Heroku? Is this possible?

This is how my model looks in the admin, but if i upload the images here, after 5 minutes disappears.
Image Upload for the model http://ishopss.com/imageUpload.png

Of course i can use static urls like this, but the problem is that i want to display different images for very course, not the same image for all.
serve in the db http://ishopss.com/for.png

So my code needs to be like this, to serve different images
aws static file http://ishopss.com/course.png

I hope some one could help me, Thanks.

Update the src and href in your html:
