Amazon RDS for SQL Server now Supports Multi-File Native Restores

Posted on: Jun 5, 2019

Starting today, when migrating to Amazon RDS for SQL Server, you can now restore a multi-file native SQL Server backup from S3 to an Amazon RDS SQL Server database instance. 

Previously, we only supported native restores from a single-file backup file when migrating to Amazon RDS SQL Server. With this update, you can now migrate databases up to 16TiB up from the previous 5TiB limit, to learn more please visit the Amazon RDS for SQL Server User Guide.
