Hi, it's Shii-chan!

AWS What's New aws.amazon.com

This one is small but handy: less waiting on quota requests!

What was announced?

According to AWS What's New, AWS Transfer Family now automatically approves requests to increase your SFTP connector quota up to 1,000 connectors per AWS account in each AWS Region.

The story so far

Previously, all quota increases required manual approval.

What changes

As your file transfer needs grow, you can add more connectors without waiting for manual approval!

Dive Deep

  • The default quota remains 100 SFTP connectors per AWS account in each AWS Region
  • You still request increases in the Service Quotas console
  • Automatic approval applies to connectors using either service-managed or Amazon VPC Lattice egress
  • If you need more than 1,000 connectors, submit a higher quota request in the Service Quotas console
  • Available in all AWS Regions where Transfer Family SFTP connectors are offered

Wrap-up

  • SFTP connector quota increases are auto-approved up to 1,000
  • The default stays at 100, and you request increases in Service Quotas
  • Above 1,000 still needs a request

This is for file transfer operators who keep adding SFTP connectors per partner!
