Architecting secure data transfer workloads is critical for today’s businesses. Customers need to be sure that each end user can only access the minimally appropriate set of files and folders once authenticated to AWS Transfer Family. There are multiple Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles necessary when designing these authentication and access controls, and customers […]

Users have successfully leveraged Amazon Web Services (AWS) Snow Family to transfer petabytes of data between on premises and AWS Regions since its launch in 2015 with the AWS Snowball device. Increasingly, users are not just migrating data with the AWS Snow Family but now are using AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimized devices to host […]

Users face challenges in their digital transformation journey involving the migration of data across various platforms, on-premises file systems, and other cloud services. When using other cloud providers, scenarios arise where the seamless transfer of data becomes essential. Whether executing a one-time data transfer or integrating it into a scheduled workflow, minimizing business downtime is […]

Moving large volumes of data across your hybrid cloud environments can seem like a daunting task, especially when dealing with a litany of requirements that arise when working within the technical limits of network, storage, compute, and operating system layers, both on-premises and in the cloud. Users face additional challenges when balancing their Recovery Time […]

Many organizations generate large quantities of data locally, including digital imagery, sensor data, and more. Customers require local compute and storage to ingest and enable real-time predications based on their data, and often preprocess this data locally before transferring to the cloud to unlock additional business value such analysis, reporting, and archiving. Automating transfers to […]

Highly regulated industries, such as finance, healthcare and government, need to exchange business to business files securely. Common protocols like SFTP provide a broadly-supported, standard method for moving files securely across public networks. For some customers, compliance requirements drive a higher bar for their SFTP authentication. To meet more stringent compliance requirements, aside from controlling […]

Many organizations find themselves faced with the task of transferring a substantial amount of object data between cloud service providers, there are various scenarios behind such transfers. These scenarios include data consolidation, workload migration, acquisition, and cost optimization efforts. Achieving a successful migration involves several crucial components, including comprehensive data encryption during transfer, the ability […]

Organizations may need to transfer large numbers of files from one cloud provider to another for a variety of reasons like workload migration, disaster recovery, or a requirement to process data in other clouds. Data transfers typically require end-to-end encryption, the ability to detect changes, object validation, network throttling, monitoring, and cost optimization. Building a […]

Customers using Google Cloud Platform (GCP) might explore the option of spreading or transitioning their cloud usage away from GCP to alternative providers for various reasons, including cost evaluations, data centralization, or changes in business requirements. Regardless of the motivating factors, adopting effective migration solutions can lead to time and cost savings while reducing downtime. […]

Organizations may at times have to transfer large amounts of object data from one cloud service provider to another. There can be several reasons for this, including data consolidation, moving workloads, disaster recovery planning, or cost optimization efforts. Completing a successful migration requires several key elements, including full encryption of the data being transferred, the […]
