AWS Import/Export Disk accelerates moving large amounts of data into and out of the AWS cloud using portable storage devices for transport.
AWS Import/Export transfers your data directly onto and off of storage devices using Amazon's high-speed internal network and bypassing the internet.

Snowball is a petabyte-scale data transport solution that uses secure appliances to transfer large amounts of data into and out of AWS. Using Snowball addresses common challenges with large-scale data transfers including high network costs, long transfer times, and security concerns. Transferring data with Snowball is simple, fast, secure and can be as little as one-fifth the cost of high-speed Internet.
80 TB snowball in all regions. Snowball uses multiple layers of security designed to protect your data including tamper-resistant enclosures, 256-bit encryption, and an industry standard Trusted Platform Module (TPM) designed to ensure both security and full chain-of-custody of your data. Once the data transfer job has been processed and verified, AWS performs a software erasure of the Snowball appliance.

Snowball Edge is a 100 TB data transfer device with on-board storage and compute capabilities. You can use snowball edge to move large amounts of data in/out aws, as temporary storage tier for large local datasets, or to support local workloads in remote or offline locations.
Snowball Edge connects to your existing applications and infrastructure using standard storage interfaces, streamlining the data transfer process and minimizing setup and integration. Snowball Edge can cluster together to form a local storage tier and process your data on-premises, helping ensure your applications continue to run even when they are not able to access the cloud.
