Today, we are introducing EFS Archive, a new storage class for Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) optimized for long-lived data that is rarely accessed. With this launch, Amazon EFS supports three Regional storage classes: EFS Standard – Powered by SSD storage and designed to deliver submillisecond latency for active data. EFS Infrequent Access (EFS IA) – Cost-optimized for data accessed only a few times a quarter, and that doesn’t need the submillisecond latencies of EFS Standard. EFS Archive – Cost-optimized for long-lived data accessed a few times a year or less and offering similar performance to EFS IA. All Regional storage classes deliver gigabytes-per-second throughput and hundreds of thousands of IOPS performance and are designed for eleven nines of…

Amazon CloudFront allows you to securely deliver static and dynamic content with low latency and high transfer speeds. With CloudFront Functions, you can perform latency-sensitive customizations for millions of requests per second. For example, you can use CloudFront Functions to modify headers, normalize cache keys, rewrite URLs, or authorize requests. Today, we are introducing CloudFront KeyValueStore, a secure global low-latency key value datastore that allows read access from within CloudFront Functions, enabling advanced customizable logic at the CloudFront edge locations. Previously, you had to embed configuration data inside the function code. For example, data for determining if a URL should be redirected and which URL to redirect the viewer to. When embedding configuration data with the function code, every small…
