AWS Storage Gateway

AWS Storage Gateway


The AWS Storage Gateway is a service connecting an on-premises software appliance with cloud-based storage to provide seamless and secure integration between an organization's on-premises IT environment and AWS's storage infrastructure.


File gateway
Store files as objects in Amazon S3, with a local cache for low-latency access to your most recently used data.
AWS Storage Gateway provides a file interface to objects in your Amazon S3 buckets. ... Like existing volume and tape gateways, your most recently used data is cached on the gateway for low-latency access, and data transfer between your data center and AWS is fully managed and optimized by the gateway.





Volume gateway
Block storage in Amazon S3 with point-in-time backups as Amazon EBS snapshots.

Objects written through file gateway can be directly accessed in S3. The volume gateway provides block storage to your applications using the iSCSI protocol. Data on the volumes is stored in Amazon S3. To access your iSCSI volumes in AWS, you can takeEBS snapshots which can be used to create EBS volumes.


Cached volumes
Low-latency access to your most recently used data.
In this model, your on-premises storage is primary, delivering low-latency access to your entire dataset, and AWS storage is the backup that you can restore in the event of a disaster in your data center. For an architectural overview of volume gateways, see Cached Volumes Architecture and Stored Volumes Architecture.



Stored volumes
On-premises data with scheduled offsite backups.
File storage is a new addition to the set of interfaces on AWS Storage Gateway, alongside the current block-based volume and virtual tape library (VTL) storage. ... With stored volumes, you store the entire set of volume data on-premises and store periodic point-in-time backups (snapshots) in AWS.




Tape gateway
Back up your data to Amazon S3 and archive in Amazon Glacier using your existing tape-based processes.
AWS Storage Gateway supports three storage interfaces: file, volume, and tape. Each gateway you have can provide one type of interface. ... The tape gatewayprovides your backup application with an iSCSI virtual tape library (VTL) interface, consisting of a virtual media changer, virtual tape drives, and virtual tapes.
