Amazon EFS Now Supports Tag-on-Create

Posted on: Feb 19, 2019

You can now tag your Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system resources as they are created. Previously, you could add tags to your file system resources once they were created.

Amazon EFS provides a simple, scalable, elastic file system for Linux-based workloads for use with AWS Cloud services and on-premises resources. By assigning tags inline with file system creation, you can more easily enforce authorization, access control, and cost allocation for your EFS resources.

You can manage resource tags for your Amazon EFS file systems using the console, CLI, or SDK. AWS resource tags are supported by Amazon EFS in all regions where EFS is available at no additional cost. For more information, please visit:
