In addition to the AWS Management Console and AWS Command Line Interface, you can use the AWS DataSync API to configure and manage DataSync with the [AWS SDKs](http://aws.amazon.com/developer/tools/).

 AWS DataSync is an online data movement service that simplifies data migration and helps you quickly, easily, and securely transfer your file or object data to, from, and between AWS storage services.

This API interface reference includes documentation for using DataSync programmatically. For complete information, see the * [AWS DataSync User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/datasync/latest/userguide/what-is-datasync.html) *.
