AWS Transfer Family SFTP connectors now support VPC-based connectivity

AWS Transfer Family SFTP Connectors

AWS Transfer Family SFTP connectors now support connecting to remote SFTP servers through your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). This feature allows you to transfer files between Amazon S3 and any SFTP server, whether privately or publicly hosted, while leveraging the security controls and network configurations already defined in your VPC.

By utilizing your NAT Gateways' bandwidth for file transfers over SFTP, you can achieve improved transfer performance and ensure compatibility with remote firewalls.

What to do

• Visit the AWS Transfer Family console or use AWS CLI/SDK to get started.
• Read the AWS News Blog for more information.
• Consult the Transfer Family User Guide.

SFTP connectors support for VPC-based connectivity is available in select AWS Regions.
