What’s your bright idea?

AWS storage migration for exabytes:AWS Snowmobile

What• 10-100PB in a 45 foot-long, secure (256-bit) ruggedized container truck

Where & When• Can be made available in all AWS regions

How• Data transferred via multiple 40Gbps interfaces up to 1Tb/s (100PB in a few weeks)• Appears as NFS mount point• Customer orders a Snowmobile, we dispatch it to their site, they hook it up and fill it, it returns

How much does it cost• $0.005/GB/mo based on provisioned capacity (from site departure to AWS ingestion completion)
