I am new to AWS EFS and trying to understand how EFS file upload works. Is there a way to upload files to EFS from local machine programmatically using java?

EFS is only accessible from within a VPC. You can't access it directly from outside of AWS. So you would have to setup a VPN connection between home network and your VPC, and then mount EFS filesystem in your local computer.
AWS EFS is a managed NFS service. Copying files from a local (on-premise) machine would require to mount it through a VPN connection or AWS Direct Connect. There is a guide for this here.
Once this is done, you can access it just like any other mounted file system, either with Java or otherwise.
