On WindowsForum.com, discussions highlight its use in enterprise migrations, such as transferring Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) user data to Amazon FSx for Windows File Server and Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP. The service preserves file metadata, ACLs, and permissions during bulk transfers, minimizing user disruption.

AWS DataSync is presented as a pragmatic tool for modernizing storage infrastructure while maintaining security and compliance.
