I went to try it but don't see it as an option!

It depends entirely on the quantity of data. For huge datasets, Snowball will be fastest & cheapest (literally shipping data).
As they used to say, never underestimate the bandwidth of a van filled with harddrives.

Even with that, I don't get it. "Moving lots of data either requires a huge pipe, or a ton of storage disks." With that, they offer their Snowball device, which, if I'm understanding correctly, holds up to 50TB (now 80TB), which they physically ship to you, and then you ship back to them. How does this fix either of the constraints (disk space / connection pipe)?

You can't upload through Cloudfront. It's a good analogy though, you can think of this feature as a "CDN for uploads", if you'll excuse the abuse of the CDN acronym.
You cant? PUT/POST through Cloudfront supported since October 2013. https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2013/10/15/amazon...

I stand corrected, thanks for the info. Cloudfront doesn't appear to support multi-part uploads however, which I guess is the primary value-add of the newly announced service.

#39Does anybody have a sense of how fast uploading to S3 can get? I'm on a gigabit link here in Singapore, uploading to Singapore instance of S3 (via ARQ) - and I'm disappointed that I rarely see better than about 40 Mbits/second.
