There is no longer a division between AWS Snowball and AWS Snowball Edge. Now, all such devices fall under the AWS Snowball Edge line, even if their intended use case is a straightforward data migration to S3.
There are four configurations with which an AWS Snowball Edge device can be ordered (see Figure 4.1):
