AWS DataSync is now available in the AWS Middle East (UAE) Region

AWS DataSync is now available in the AWS Middle East (UAE) Region. You can now use DataSync to copy data between on-premises, edge, or other cloud storage and AWS Storage services, as well as between AWS Storage services in the AWS Middle East (UAE) Region.

AWS DataSync simplifies, automates, and accelerates copying large amounts of data between on-premises storage, edge locations, or other clouds, and AWS Storage services, as well as between AWS Storage services. You can use DataSync to migrate active datasets to AWS, archive data to AWS to free up on-premises storage capacity, replicate data to AWS for business continuity, or transfer data to the cloud for analysis and processing. It supports encryption in-transit and at-rest, and all data is validated byte-for-byte throughout the transfer process.

With this launch, AWS DataSync is now available in 25 AWS Regions. To learn more, visit the AWS DataSync product page, view the documentation, or try it in the AWS Console.
