AWS Transfer Family increases throughput and file sizes supported by SFTP connectors

AWS Transfer Family announces higher performance limits for SFTP connectors, with maximum supported file size increased to 150 GB and maximum throughput increased to 100 files per second.

SFTP connectors provide fully managed and low-code capability to copy files between remote SFTP servers and Amazon S3. With today’s enhancements, customers can use connectors to easily scale workflows such as media files processing and database migrations that involve transferring large volume of files or larger file sizes over SFTP. Additionally, customers can achieve higher performance using SFTP connectors with remote SFTP servers that support concurrent sessions

Increased limits for SFTP connectors are available in all AWS Regions where the service is available. To learn more about SFTP connectors, visit the documentation. To get started with Transfer Family’s SFTP offerings, take the self-paced SFTP workshop.
