This offering is available today on the Amazon Web Services, IBM Softlayer Cloud, Google Cloud and on the Microsoft Windows Azure cloud platforms. Support for other cloud platforms and types of services will be available in the future.

    AWS Transfer for SFTP is a fully managed service that enables the transfer of files directly into and out of Amazon S3 using the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)—also known as Secure Shell (SSH) File Transfer Protocol.
