AWS Transfer Family provides fully managed Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP) over TLS, and FTP support for HAQM Simple Storage Service (HAQM S3), enabling you to seamlessly migrate your file transfer workflows to AWS. Today I am happy to announce AWS Transfer Family now also supports file transfers to HAQM Elastic […]

When we launched S3 back in 2006, I discussed its virtually unlimited capacity (“…easily store any number of blocks…”), the fact that it was designed to provide 99.99% availability, and that it offered durable storage, with data transparently stored in multiple locations. Since that launch, our customers have used S3 in an amazing diverse set […]

HAQM Elastic Block Store (HAQM EBS) volumes have been an essential EC2 component since they were launched in 2008. Today, you can choose between six types of HDD and SSD volumes, each designed to serve a particular use case and to deliver a specified amount of performance. Earlier this year we launched io2 volumes with […]

HAQM Elastic Block Store (EBS) is an easy-to-use, high-performance block storage service designed for use with HAQM EC2 instances for both throughput and transaction-intensive workloads of all sizes. Using existing general purpose solid state drive (SSD) gp2 volumes, performance scales with storage capacity. By provisioning larger storage volume sizes, you can improve application input / […]

In July 2018, we announced memory-optimized R5 instances for the HAQM Elastic Compute Cloud (HAQM EC2). R5 instances are designed for memory-intensive applications such as high-performance databases, distributed web scale in-memory caches, in-memory databases, real time big data analytics, and other enterprise applications. R5 instances offer two different block storage options. R5d instances offer up […]

When starting out in the cloud, a customer’s storage requirements might consist of a handful of S3 buckets, but as they grow, migrate more applications and realize the power of the cloud, things can become more complicated. A customer may have tens or even hundreds of accounts and have multiple S3 buckets across numerous AWS […]
