Supported transfers across Amazon Web Services Regions

You can transfer data between Amazon Web Services Regions supported by DataSync except in the following situations:

  • You can't transfer between Regions if one or both of the Regions is an opt-in Region. This limitation still applies even if you enable the opt-in Regions involved in the transfer.

When you transfer data between Amazon Web Services in different Amazon Web Services Regions, one of the two locations must be in the Region where you're using DataSync.
