Introducing Amazon AppFlow

Posted on: Apr 22, 2020

Amazon AppFlow is a fully managed integration service that enables you to securely transfer data between Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications like Salesforce, Marketo, Slack, and ServiceNow, and AWS services like Amazon S3 and Amazon Redshift, in just a few clicks. With AppFlow, you can run data flows at nearly any scale at the frequency you choose - on a schedule, in response to a business event, or on demand. AppFlow includes powerful data transformation capabilities like mapping, merging, masking, filtering, and validation so you can generate rich, ready-to-use data as part of the flow itself, without additional steps. AppFlow automatically encrypts data in motion, and allows users to restrict data from flowing over the public Internet for SaaS applications that are integrated with AWS PrivateLink, reducing exposure to security threats.

AppFlow supports Amazon S3 and 13 SaaS applications as sources of data, and Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift, Salesforce, and Snowflake as destinations. To learn more, please visit the AppFlow integrations page.  

There are no upfront charges or fees to use AppFlow, and customers only pay for the number of flows they run and the volume of data processed.  

You can get started with AppFlow using the AWS Management Console in minutes. Select your data source and destination, specify your flow trigger, map your fields, opt to add data transformations or validations, and then run your flow.  

AppFlow is generally available today in the following regions: US East (Northern Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Northern California), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Toyko), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Europe (Paris), Europe (Ireland), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (London), and South America (São Paulo).
