Using AWS to Access Public Datasets

AWS Tutorial Part 1: Downloading and Transferring SPARC Datasets over 5GB

SPARC datasets can be very large and because of this, we provide direct access to those datasets through Amazon's Web Services (AWS). The Using AWS with SPARC video is the first in a series of four tutorials that walk users through the process of setting up an AWS account and accessing the datasets.
