Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP Adds S3 Access Points Support

📂 You can now attach Amazon S3 Access Points to Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file systems so applications can access file data as if it were stored in S3. This lets a broad range of AI, ML, and analytics services—including Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, and Glue—use your FSx file data without copying it. Create and attach access points via the Amazon FSx console, AWS CLI, or SDK; support for existing file systems will arrive in a forthcoming maintenance window. The capability is available in select AWS Regions.
