Amazon DataSync Enhanced mode adds agent-based support for HDFS, Azure Blob Storage, and self-managed object storage
Amazon DataSync Enhanced mode now supports agent-based data transfers with Hadoop Distributed File Systems (HDFS), Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, and self-managed object storage. Using a DataSync agent, customers can now transfer data to and from these locations in Enhanced mode. Enhanced mode HDFS support also includes: (1) multiple NameNode configurations for High Availability, and (2) Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) with Kerberos authentication — enabling organizations in regulated industries such as financial services to securely migrate petabyte-scale encrypted Hadoop data while maintaining high availability. Enhanced mode agents can also now be deployed on Microsoft Hyper-V.
Amazon DataSync is a secure, high-speed data transfer service that simplifies moving data over a network. Enhanced mode processes data in parallel, removes file count limitations, and provides detailed transfer metrics. To get started, visit the Amazon DataSync console.
