Configuring a Multi-Region Access Point for use with AWS PrivateLink - Amazon Simple Storage Service
Services or capabilities described in AWS documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the AWS European Sovereign Cloud Region, see the AWS European Sovereign Cloud User Guide.

Configuring a Multi-Region Access Point for use with AWS PrivateLink

You can use Multi-Region Access Points to route Amazon S3 request traffic between AWS Regions. Each Multi-Region Access Point global endpoint routes Amazon S3 data request traffic from multiple sources without your having to build complex networking configurations with separate endpoints. These data-request traffic sources include:

  • Traffic originating in a virtual private cloud (VPC)

  • Traffic from on-premises data centers traveling over AWS PrivateLink

  • Traffic from the public internet

If you establish an AWS PrivateLink connection to an S3 Multi-Region Access Point, you can route S3 requests into AWS, or across multiple AWS Regions, over a private connection by using a simple network architecture and configuration. When you use AWS PrivateLink, you don't need to configure a VPC peering connection.
