What is the fastest way to move data over long distances using the internet, for instance across countries or continents to your Amazon S3 bucket?

Assuming you are using the AWS CLI to upload data to s3, there are two optimizations to increase the speed:

1) Parallel chunked uploading, which uploads your (large) file in chunks in parallel.

2) use Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration

This will upload your file to a nearby CloudFront instance

You can enable this in your CLI configuration file, named config in the .aws folder. Add the following lines:

s3 =

max_concurrent_requests = 20

max_queue_size = 10000

multipart_threshold = 64MB

multipart_chunksize = 16MB

max_bandwidth = 100MB/s

use_accelerate_endpoint = true

addressing_style = path

the omega button is one of them.

plot immersion i am not fully sure with it though
