AWS PrivateLink for Amazon S3 is Now Generally AvailableCategory: Data, firewall
At AWS re:Invent, we pre-announced that AWS PrivateLink for Amazon S3 was coming soon, and soon has arrived — this new feature is now generally available. AWS PrivateLink provides private connectivity between Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) and on-premises resources using private IPs from your virtual network.
Our customers welcomed this new flexibility but also told us they needed to access S3 from on-premises applications privately over secure connections provided by AWS Direct Connect or AWS VPN. Our customers are very resourceful and by setting up proxy servers with private IP addresses in their Amazon Virtual Private Clouds and using gateway endpoints for S3, they found a way to solve this problem.
We looked at how we could solve this problem for our customers without these drawbacks and PrivateLink for S3 is the result.
