AWS Storage Gateway securely integrates on-premises IT environments with cloud storage for backup and disaster recovery.

Use cloud-backed block storage on-premises with point-in-time backups as Amazon EBS snapshots.

Volume Gateway

Backup and archive on-premises data to virtual tapes in AWS.

Tape Gateway

A file share can be accessed using either the Network File System (NFS) or Server Message Block (SMB) protocol.

File shares

You deploy the gateway in your data center on either a virtual machine or a hardware appliance. The gateway connects to the AWS Storage Gateway service that runs in the cloud.

Gateways

Virtual tapes can be automatically or manually created based on your gateway configuration.

Tapes

An FSx file system is a location managed by Amazon FSx where you can store and access your files and folders.

FSx file systems

A tape pool represents the storage class in which your tape is stored when it is ejected by your backup software.

Tape pools

Store file data as objects in Amazon S3 cloud storage using NFS and SMB with local caching.

Amazon S3 File Gateway

You can run Volume Gateway in two modes: Cached and stored. With cached volumes, the full volume is stored in the gateway's Amazon S3 service bucket, and your recently accessed data is retained in the gateway's local cache. With stored volumes, your entire data volume is available locally in the gateway.

Volumes

The Storage Gateway Hardware Appliance is a physical, standalone, validated server configuration for on-premises deployments. It comes pre-loaded with Storage Gateway software, and provides all the required CPU, memory, network, and SSD cache resources for creating and configuring File Gateway, Volume Gateway, or Tape Gateway.

Hardware

Low-latency, on-premises access to fully managed file shares in Amazon FSx for Windows File Server.

Amazon FSx File Gateway

Create an S3 File, FSx File, Tape, or Volume gateway to host your on-premises data in the cloud.

Create gateway

Create a file share that you can mount on your Windows, Linux, or MacOS client. You can create one or more file shares for each S3 File Gateway in your deployment.

Create file share

Attach an Amazon FSx file system to your gateway to make its file shares available to mount on your Windows client. You can attach one or more file systems to each FSx File Gateway in your deployment.

Attach FSx file system

Create virtual tapes for your gateways. You can create one or more tapes for each Tape Gateway in your deployment.

Create tapes

Create tape pools to specify the Amazon S3 storage class and retention settings for archiving your ejected tapes.

Create pool

Create storage volumes for your gateways. You can create one or more volumes for each Volume Gateway in your deployment.

Create volume

Connect a hardware appliance to your Amazon Web Services account and validate its security credentials.
