Appropriately sneaky: https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/ appears[1] to allow export of petabytes of data but then the FAQ reneges “Snowmobile does not support data export”[2].

[1] tagline: “Migrate or transport exabyte-scale datasets into and out of AWS”.

[2] “Q: Can I export data from AWS with Snowmobile?” A: No. in https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/faqs/#Using_Snowmobile



The answer, for the curious, is to use Snowball Edge.


Not an answer for the Exabytes they appear to be falsely advertising they can export in the tagline. A mediocre answer for Petabytes. I agree Snowball Edge is one answer for Terabytes: “HDD storage capacity: 80 TB” - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/snowball/latest/developer-guide/...
