Amazon File Cache S3 linked datasets Icon

Amazon File Cache is a fully managed caching service that speeds up access to your Amazon S3 datasets. It acts like a high-performance intermediary between your compute instances and your S3 data, reducing latency and improving application performance. Think of it as a fast, readily available copy of frequently accessed S3 data, ideal for workloads that demand low-latency file access like high-performance computing, big data analytics, and media processing. By caching data locally, it drastically cuts down on the time it takes to fetch data from S3, allowing your applications to run more quickly and efficiently.
