AWS Transform expanded its migration assessment capabilities to analyze on-premises storage inventories, automatically recommending optimized AWS storage services such as Amazon S3, EBS, EFS, and FSx variants. It streamlines workload mapping by processing various storage types and protocols through uploaded inventory data, delivering service sizing and cost projections to support total cost of ownership evaluations.
The feature supports a range of storage sources, including NAS shares and SAN LUNs, and enables users to simulate deployment scenarios across availability zones and performance strategies via interactive queries. This service is broadly available in all AWS Regions offering AWS Transform, aiming to reduce manual effort in planning storage migrations.
