Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager Regional Expansion

Posted on: Aug 16, 2018

Starting today, Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager (DLM) for EBS Snapshots is available in 11 more AWS regions. DLM provides a simple, automated way to back up data stored on Amazon EBS volumes. With this feature, you no longer have to rely on custom scripts to create and manage your backups. 

To get started, tag your EBS volumes and start creating lifecycle policies via Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager. You can create the policies in the AWS Management Console, from the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) or via the Data Lifecycle Manager APIs.

With this expansion, DLM is now available in 14 AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Canada (Central), EU (Frankfurt), EU (Ireland), EU (London), and South America (São Paulo).
