AWS re:Invent 2018: How Amazon EFS Infrequent Access Optimizes File System Costs (STG327)
Published on Dec 13, 2018
In this session, we introduce the Infrequent Access storage class for Amazon EFS. Amazon EFS Infrequent Access is a cost-optimized storage class for files not accessed every day, reducing storage costs by up to 85% compared to the Amazon EFS Standard storage class. Along with EFS IA, we will introduce EFS Lifecycle Management, which automatically transitions infrequently accessed files into the new storage class. Come learn how Amazon EFS Infrequent Access will work and how to get started. The target audience is file system administrators and application owners who are looking to more cost-effectively run file-based applications in the cloud.
