AWS Snow Family quickens multi-PB data migration with new 210TB device

AWS announces the general availability of a new AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized device with higher storage capacity. The new Snowball Edge Storage Optimized device increases storage capacity on Snow devices from 80TB to 210TB with high performance NVMe storage, enabling customers to simplify multi-petabyte data migrations from on-premises locations to AWS. With the increased storage capacity and higher performance NVMe drives, customers can now migrate 2PBs of data per month doubling the velocity of large migrations. In addition, customers may also benefit from applying proof-of-concept (POC) credits for AWS assisted PoC evaluation and data migration planning with Snow Large Data Migration Manager. Customers can use Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) or NFS protocols to transfer data to the Snowball Edge 210TB devices. The updated Snowball Edge Storage Optimized configuration is available now in the US East (N. Virginia), and US West (Oregon) Regions.
