What is Snow Family in AWS?
Pre-requisites: AWS
In order to move massive volumes of data into and out of the cloud without relying on networks, Amazon has created the Snow Family of physical devices. This enables you to utilize your data with the vast array of Amazon analytics, file system, and archive services. Large-scale data transit and local storage are both well suited to it. For use cases like sophisticated machine learning and full motion video analysis in disconnected settings, Snowball Edge Compute Optimized devices offer 52 vCPUs, 42 terabytes of useable block or object storage, and an optional GPU. A tractor-trailer is used to transport an AWS Snowmobile shipping container. These services can help with initiatives including data migration, disaster recovery, shutting down data centers, and remote data collecting.
