Framework for secure, scalable, and trackable data transfer for Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) objects and Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) images
Publication date: December 2021 (last update: November 2024)
The Data Transfer Hub solution provides secure, scalable, and trackable data transfer for Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) objects and Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) images. This data transfer helps you easily create and manage different types (Amazon S3 object and Amazon ECR image) of transfer tasks between AWS partitions (for example, aws, aws-cn, aws-us-gov), and from other cloud providers to AWS at your own discretion.
If you have enabled the Direct Connect service in a specific AWS Region and a specific AWS China Region and have purchased a compliant cross-border dedicated line provided by a qualified operator to connect the AWS Region and their own VPC in the AWS China Region, you can use Data Transfer Hub's console to create a data transfer task and choose to use a dedicated line for data transfer at your own discretion.
This implementation guide describes an overview of the Data Transfer Hub solution, its reference architecture and components, considerations for planning the deployment, and configuration steps for deploying Data Transfer Hub in the AWS Cloud. It also includes some tutorials with prescriptive guidance for using Data Transfer Hub.
