Quick overview

AWS Storage Gateway lets you connect and extend your on-premises applications to AWS storage services such as S3, S3 Glacier and EBS.
● File Gateway uses SMB or NFS file shares for on-premises applications to store files as S3 objects and access them with traditional file interfaces.
● Volume Gateway stores or caches block volumes locally, with point-in-time backups as EBS snapshots. These snapshots can also be recovered in the cloud.
● Tape Gateway virtual tape library (VTL) configuration integrates with existing backup software for cost effective tape replacement in Amazon S3 and long term archival in S3 Glacier and S3 Glacier Deep Archive.
