Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager now supports Amazon PrivateLink to connect directly to the Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager APIs in your virtual private cloud (VPC) instead of connecting over the internet.

Customers create Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager policies to automate the creation, retention, and management of EBS Snapshots and EBS-backed Amazon Machine Images (AMIs). When you use Amazon PrivateLink to access Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager APIs, communication between your VPC and Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager API is conducted privately within the Amazon Web Services China network, providing a secure pathway for your data. An Amazon PrivateLink endpoint connects your VPC directly to the Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager API.

Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager with Amazon PrivateLink is now available in both Amazon Web Services China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet and Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD.

You can create an Amazon PrivateLink to connect to Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager using the Amazon Web Services Management Console or Amazon Command Line Interface (CLI) commands. To learn more about using Amazon PrivateLink, please refer to our documentation.
