I have a distributed application where a process uploads a file to S3 and other (one or more) process downloads and work on the file. These process now upload their output file to S3 which other process can use. I am currently using S3 for storing this file - which causes high latency for uploading/downloading larger files. The applications all run on EC2 instances. Will EFS be a better use case for modeling this? Will there be latency improvement on using EFS as opposed to S3. Also, will EFS be equally reliable as S3?

You should ask AWS directly with this new service. – BMW Oct 06 '15 at 01:04
