AWS DataSync simplifies and accelerates cross-cloud data transfers

AWS DataSync customers can now transfer data directly between storage in other clouds and Amazon S3, without needing to deploy DataSync agents. This new capability uses DataSync Enhanced mode to deliver increased performance and scalability, helping customers streamline their data pipelines and accelerate migrations from other clouds to AWS.

AWS DataSync is a secure, reliable, high-speed data transfer service that simplifies moving data over networks. This launch enables direct transfers to and from storage services in other clouds including Google Cloud Storage, Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, and Oracle Cloud Object Storage. Using Enhanced mode, this new capability provides faster transfer speeds through parallel processing of data preparation, transfer, and verification, while supporting virtually unlimited object counts. Customers can monitor transfers using detailed metrics and reporting capabilities, all with a simplified setup that requires no agent deployment.

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.
