Since its introduction in November 2018, the AWS Transfer for SFTP service has been embraced by a multitude of organizations seeking secure SFTP access to data stored in Amazon S3. At Amazon, we are committed to continually enhancing our services based on customer feedback. Many users have expressed a desire for improved solutions to facilitate their data distribution needs.

Amazon Elastic File System (EFS)

In the realm of container storage, Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) has become a go-to choice for thousands of businesses, particularly for those leveraging containerized applications. EFS file systems integrate seamlessly with both Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), proving to be an ideal solution for container storage.

Last month, we highlighted how numerous customers are benefiting from the Amazon EFS Infrequent Access storage class (EFS IA). This feature allows users to store their files affordably within a fully managed, durable, and elastic cloud file system. Our announcement on the AWS News blog detailed these advantages further.

Amazon S3 Object Lock

Additionally, Amazon S3 Object Lock enables users to protect their data by adhering to a write once, read many (WORM) model. This is particularly useful when it is critical that data remains unchanged. Notably, as of November 20, 2023, S3 now supports enabling Object Lock on existing buckets.

Machine Learning and Storage Optimization

For those engaged in machine learning, we discussed optimizing training on Amazon SageMaker utilizing Amazon FSx for Lustre and Amazon EFS file systems. When deploying analytics applications, it is essential to have storage that can scale to meet performance demands while ensuring low-latency operations.

S3 Batch Operations

Moreover, S3 Batch Operations offers a practical way to manage vast video archives. This feature allows users to perform bulk actions, such as copying or tagging, across millions of objects efficiently.

AWS re:Invent 2019

As we prepare for AWS re:Invent 2019, we invite you to attend “AWS Storage Days” in San Francisco and NYC, where you can get acquainted with our full range of AWS storage services.

Amazon CloudWatch Update

If you’re interested in application response times, the recent update to Amazon CloudWatch now supports percentiles for Amazon S3, providing greater accuracy in monitoring application performance. This is essential for organizations focused on enhancing user experiences.

Data Encryption and Security

Encrypting data remains a top priority for businesses. With Amazon S3 Batch Operations, you can encrypt individual files within extensive data archives to maintain security.
