The sync-from replication policy provides information about replicated objects, their remote buckets, and information from the remote queue.
A set of rules that define asynchronous replication from remote buckets is applied. Each rule defines the objects to be replicated, the remote bucket these objects are replicated from, and the corresponding AWS SQS queue. The queue is used for notifications about the changes in the remote bucket.
Each policy can contain up to 1,000 rules and each rule contains filters (such as prefixes and tags). If a filter is not applied to a sync-from replication policy on bucket, then the policy applies to all objects.
As you set up your policy, all required fields are highlighted to make configuration easier.
Notes:
- Source and target buckets cannot be the same when creating this policy.
- When adding a rule to this policy, the All objects filter is selected by default. To add tags, a prefix, or both, click Filter objects.
