Whether it needed to outrun Imperial fighters or make the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs, the Millennium Falcon simply couldn’t work its magic without a functioning hyperdrive. Similarly, today’s business enterprises need a way to move vast amounts of data quickly, securely, and without interruption—but relying on the public internet simply isn’t cutting it.

The Challenge of Moving Data Online
There’s no doubt that Amazon S3 is a high-performance, scalable, and cost-effective data storage solution that’s widely used by enterprises. However, as incredible as S3 is, many businesses face challenges when accessing it or migrating data over the public internet. Common roadblocks include:
- Security Concerns: Sensitive files and critical business data can be vulnerable over public internet connections.
- High Latency Issues: Public internet often struggles to deliver the speed necessary for accessing or transferring large amounts of data.
- Bandwidth Limitations: Large datasets or heavy, frequent traffic can strain bandwidth, disrupting operations and productivity.
These connectivity challenges can prevent businesses from fully leveraging the power of AWS S3, especially for mission-critical tasks like archiving, retaining and recovering backups, big data processing, or accessing large-scale analytics.
