Amazon FSx for OpenZFS now supports on-demand data replication across AWS Regions and accounts

Today, AWS announces on-demand data replication for Amazon FSx for OpenZFS across AWS Regions and/or AWS accounts, enabling you to easily and efficiently transfer incremental point-in-time snapshots of your volumes to a different AWS Region or account. On-demand data replication now provides a simple and resilient way to implement disaster recovery, replicate production data to a different region or account, and enable lower latency data access for your global customer base or workforce. [Amazon FSx for OpenZFS](https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/openzfs/) provides fully managed, cost-effective, shared file storage powered by the popular OpenZFS file system, with rich OpenZFS-powered data management capabilities like snapshots, data cloning, and compression, with sub-millisecond latencies and up to 10 GB/s of throughput. Previously, you could use snapshots to replicate volumes across file systems within the same account and AWS Region, enabling full isolation of production and development infrastructure. Now, you can also replicate volumes across AWS Regions and/or accounts to implement multi-region disaster recovery, to replicate production data to a test/development environment in a different region or account, and to provide globally distributed read replicas. Starting today, you can replicate volumes across AWS accounts in all AWS Regions where Amazon FSx for OpenZFS is available. You can replicate volumes across AWS Regions provided neither region is an [opt-in region](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-regions-availability-zones.html#concepts-available-regions). There is no charge for on-demand data replication, but you will pay standard AWS data transfer charges as applicable. For more information on how to use on-demand replication with your FSx for OpenZFS file systems, see the [Amazon FSx documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/fsx/latest/OpenZFSGuide/on-demand-replication.html).
