Helping You Get the Most out of Amazon S3

The Challenge

Sharing large files stored in Amazon S3 with outside collaborators – or collecting files from them – often requires IT resources and complex access management.

  • Sharing stonewalls: Sending data from S3 to collaborators often means using presigned URLs that expire and offer a poor user experience.
  • Access risks: Granting outside collaborators access means navigating IAM permissions and access policies, and is a security risk.
  • File size limits: The AWS Management Console limits uploads to 160GB, which can quickly put the brakes on high-volume transfer projects.

The MASV Solution

MASV’s Amazon S3 Integration is the best way to transfer files to and from S3.

  • MASV makes it easy to send and receive large files directly in your S3 bucket with no coding, account sharing, or security compromises.
  • Just connect your bucket and start transferring.
  • Upload up to 5 TB per file in one shot.
