12. Getting Data into AWS

13. Data Ingestion Options
AWS Direct Connect
Dedicated bandwidth between
your site and AWS
Internet
Transfer data in a secure SSL tunnel over the
public Internet
AWS Import/Export
Physical transfer of media into and
out of AWS

14. AWS Ingestion Options - Internet
1. Multipart upload
2. Request rate optimization
3. TCP window scaling
4. TCP selective
acknowledgement
AWS has customers that ingest roughly 1 PB per day

15. AWS Ingestion Options - AWS Direct Connect
• Private connectivity to AWS
– Physical connection – 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps port
• Consistent network performance
• Consider burst models on ingest
• Reduces costs for bandwidth-heavy
outbound workloads
• US Locations
• CoreSite 32 Avenue of the Americas, NY
• CoreSite One Wilshire & 900 North Alameda, LA
• Equinix DC1 – DC6 & DC10 - DC11, Ashburn, VA
• Equinix SV1 & SV5, San Jose, CA
• Equinix SE2 & SE3, Seattle, WA

16. AWS Ingestion Options - AWS Import/Export
• Rapidly move data into
and out of AWS
• Portable storage device
shipment to AWS
• Supports
– Amazon EBS
– Amazon S3
– Amazon Glacier
• Use cases
– Initial data migration
– Content distribution via portable
devices
– Disaster recovery
