AWS DataSync increases scalability and performance for on-premises file transfers

AWS DataSync Enhanced mode now supports data transfers between on-premises file servers and Amazon S3, enabling customers to transfer datasets that scale to virtually unlimited numbers of files at higher levels of performance than DataSync Basic mode.

AWS DataSync is a secure, high-speed file transfer service that optimizes data movement over a network. Enhanced mode uses parallel processing to deliver higher performance and scalability for datasets of any size, while removing file count limitations and providing detailed transfer metrics for better monitoring and management. Previously, Enhanced mode was available for data transfers between Amazon S3 locations and for multicloud transfers. This launch extends the capabilities of Enhanced mode to support transfers between on-premises NFS or SMB file servers, and Amazon S3. Using Enhanced mode, customers can accelerate generative AI workloads by rapidly moving training datasets to AWS, power data lake analytics by synchronizing on-premises data with cloud-based pipelines, and drive large-scale migrations for archival and cloud modernization.

This new capability is available in all AWS Regions where AWS DataSync is offered. To get started, visit the AWS DataSync console. For more information, see the AWS DataSync documentation.
