AWS Storage & Backup

AWS Storage Gateway

Hybrid storage that gives on-premises applications access to virtually unlimited cloud storage.

What it is used for

  • Backing up office servers to the cloud
  • Tape replacement
  • File shares backed by S3

On the other cloud

There is no direct one-to-one equivalent on Google Cloud; we can suggest the best combination of services for your needs.

How DomainHostly helps with AWS Storage Gateway

  • Plan: choose the right setup, size and region for your workload and budget.
  • Set up securely: configure AWS Storage Gateway with least-privilege access, encryption and backups where they apply.
  • Migrate: move from shared hosting, your own servers or the other cloud with minimal downtime.
  • Run and optimise: monitoring, updates and regular cost reviews so you only pay for what you use.

Storage & Backup: Object, block and file storage, archives and backups for any amount of data.

What to consider: Storage & Backup

  • Match the storage type to the access pattern: object storage for files and backups, block for a server's disk, file storage for shared folders.
  • Use lifecycle rules to move old data to cheaper classes automatically.
  • Turn on versioning or backups and test a restore before you need it.
