Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) is now available in the AWS Africa (Cape Town) region

Customers in the AWS Africa (Cape Town) region can now use Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS).

Amazon EFS provides a simple, scalable, fully managed elastic NFS file system for use with AWS Cloud services and on-premises resources. It is built to scale on demand to petabytes without disrupting applications, growing and shrinking automatically as you add and remove files, eliminating the need to provision and manage capacity to accommodate growth.
