AWS S3 Files (aws.amazon.com)

AWS announced “Amazon S3 Files,” a service that exposes S3 buckets as a shared, file-system interface built on Amazon EFS. It aims to let file-based applications and tools access S3 data with low latency and full file semantics without duplicating or syncing data between object and file storage. AWS says it translates file operations into efficient S3 requests, supports shared access from many compute resources, and is now generally available in 34 regions.
