At first glance, the data fabric and the data mesh concepts sound quite similar. Meshes are often made from a type of fabric, after all, and they are both malleable items that can be lain atop things–in this case, your IT systems that are subject to the ever-growing data crush. But there are fundamental differences to these two approaches, so it’s worth taking some time to learn their differences.

AWS Snowmobile is an exabyte-scale data transfer service used to move extremely large amounts of data to AWS. You can transfer up to 100PB per Snowmobile, a 45-foot long ruggedized shipping container, pulled by a semi-trailer truck. Snowmobile makes it easy to move massive volumes of data to the cloud, including video libraries, image repositories, or even a complete data center migration. Transferring data with Snowmobile is secure, fast and cost effective.
Farid Mheir's insight:
Moving large amounts of data to the cloud - petabytes and exabytes - would take years to do if transferred using networks and the Internet. Amazon provides its customers with dedicated and secure hard drives - they call snowballs - and truck - they call snowmobiles - to move the data from one data center to the next.
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT There are limits to our network infrastructures and physical solutions often are required to migrate data to the cloud or digitize products. For example scanning paper files or converting books to digital ones often require specialized equipments in order to perform the work rapidly and cost effectively. Google had patented a book scanning equipment in order to create its Google books project in the past. I assume this same kind of innovation will start to happen in other fields as well. http://www.theverge.com/2012/11/13/3639016/google-books-scanner-vacuum-diy https://books.google.com/googlebooks/about/
