Introduction A few days ago, AWS announced in a blog post that they would be providing free DTO (Data Transfer Out) of AWS, when moving data to another cloud provider or to an on-premises data center. This is a pretty big deal, because one of the common concerns from companies looking to adopt the cloud, is the expense of moving their data out, causing vendor lock-in. In this article, we will explore details on transferring data in and out of AWS, some of the more recent regulatory changes, and the potential business impact. Data Transfer In Typically, there is no charge for inbound data transfer to AWS. The challenge becomes how to get the data into AWS quickly and efficiently. If a small amount of data needs to be transferred, it can be uploaded directly via the internet, for example to an S3 bucket. For larger datasets, or to set up a larger job to connect between an on-premises data center and AWS, the two most common options are Site-to-Site VPN and Direct Connect, both which come with a cost. AWS DataSync can also be set up to copy between on-premises and AWS, to automate moving data to a number of AWS services. For extremely large datasets that cannot be transferred over the internet, or in an environment where there is no consistent network connectivity, the AWS Snow Family is available. This allows for some edge computing to collect and process data, and move it to the AWS cloud by physically shipping the device to AWS. AWS Snowcone has an HDD and SSD device type, which can transfer 8-14TB of data securely on a device small enough to put in a backpack. AWS Snowball has a number of devices optimized for edge computing and data transfer. The service allows you to order a ruggedized device that can hold multiple terrabytes to petabytes of data, to transfer to AWS. You would set up a Snowball Edge Job to define how to import the data into S3. Once the data is copied to the Snowball, it can be shipped back to the proper AWS datacenter to be uploaded and complete the job. If you have extremely large amounts of data to transfer, such as hundreds of petabytes or into exabytes, AWS Snowmobile can move up to 100PB at once via a ruggedized shipping container. The ruggedized shipping container is tamper-resistant, water-resistant, temperature controlled, and GPS-tracked. The service was announced in 2016, and one of the trucks shown during a presentation that year at AWS re-Invent: https://lnkd.in/d2z6qhUf For all of the above methods, the charges would be for the method of data transfer, but the actual data transfer into AWS would cost $0.00/GB. Data Transfer Out Many of the methods for transferring data into AWS can also be used to transfer data out. The catch is that until recently, you would also be charged per GB of data transferred out. For example, see this AWS blog post from 2010, when outbound data transfer prices were reduced. Companies would pay $0.08 – $0.15 per GB transferred out per month.

When migrating a large, on-premises database to the cloud, the sheer size of the data can present significant obstacles. This blog post, co-authored with Pragnesh S and Chibuzor Onwudinjor, aims to provide guidance and insights to make this migration process more seamless. The goal is to equip you with the knowledge and strategies needed to overcome the database size barrier and successfully migrate your on-premises database to the AWS cloud.
