Amazon Transfer Family has reduced the service side login latency from 1-2 seconds to under 500 milliseconds.
Amazon Transfer Family offers fully managed support for the transfer of files over SFTP, AS2, FTPS, FTP, and web browser-based transfers directly into and out of Amazon storage services. With this launch, you benefit from significantly reduced latency from the service to initiate the transfer over SFTP. This optimization offers substantial benefits, particularly for high-frequency, low-latency use cases leveraging automated processes or applications requiring rapid file operations.
Reduced server-side login latency is immediately available at no additional cost for all new and existing Transfer Family SFTP servers in all Amazon Web Services Regions where the service is available, including Amazon Web Services China (Beijing) region, operated by Sinnet and Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) region, operated by NWCD.
