What is a Storage Gateway?

The use of the cloud has transformed the way companies store and manage their information. However, fully transitioning to the cloud can be a challenge for many organizations. This is where Storage Gateway comes in. This service acts as a bridge between on-premise applications and cloud storage services, facilitating seamless integration and improving the efficiency of your operations. One of the most prominent types is the File Gateway.

What is a File Gateway?

The File Gateway is an essential solution for on-premises applications that require access to storage via SMB or NFS, enabling a seamless connection between your on-premises and AWS cloud storage. Here, data is stored as objects via Amazon S3, making it possible to manage files easily and efficiently.

File Gateway use cases

  • Migration and frequent access: When you need to migrate data to S3 but want to keep certain files quickly accessible on-premises, the File Gateway offers the option of local caching to minimize latency.
  • Object lifecycle integration: Take advantage of features such as object lifecycle management in S3.

How to configure a File Gateway in the console?

Configuring a File Gateway is a simple process that involves several steps in the AWS console:

  1. Go to Storage Gateway in the AWS console.
  2. Select Get Started and choose File Gateway.
  3. Configure the desired compatibility, which can include VMware ESXI, Hyper-V 2012, or even deploy to a Hardware Appliance.

Compatibility and requirements

File Gateway is compatible with a variety of platforms:

  • VMware ESXI and Hyper-V: Offering easy integration for virtualized environments.
  • Hardware Appliances: Possibility to purchase and install specific devices to facilitate deployment.

A specific IP is required to establish a connection between the cloud and the local image, ensuring smooth operations.

Why choose File Gateway?

File Gateway offers multiple advantages that make it an attractive option:

  • Local Cache: Improves latency and fast access to the most frequented objects.
  • Extensive Compatibility: Works with VMware, Hyper-V and other specialized appliances.
  • Object Synchronization: Facilitates efficient moving and synchronization of objects to S3, allowing you to take advantage of native S3 functionality once migrated.

This service not only provides optimized integration between on-premises and cloud, but also amplifies storage and data management capabilities, thus strengthening the company's technology infrastructure. As always, we encourage you to continue exploring more of the services and tools AWS offers to power your growth in the cloud.

Esta muy bueno el curso pero me gustaría que lo hiciera con un ejemplo practico, estilo problemas de matemáticas. Ejemplo.
El jefe del departamento pide bla bla bla y tu como jefe de IT tienes que hacerlo… y asi me parece una buena forma de practicar eventos de la vida real y no solo imaginarmelos

File Gateway

Es un tipo de Storage Gateway, el cual permite que aplicaciones on-premise accedan a Storage a través de SMB o NFS.
Con File Gateway podemos empezar a pasar nuestros objetos de on-premise a S3, nuestros logs para procesamiento, y básicamente va a ser a nivel de objetos.
Este tipo de Storage provee una opción que se llama The Cache, el cual hace un caché local de los objetos que se están transfiriendo para que puedan ser accesibles de manera frecuente mientras se va haciendo la réplica a la nube.

Para los que les interese en este video pude entender que trata este servicio de una manera mas práctica

Para los que no saben que es on-premise:
El software local se instala y se ejecuta en computadoras en las instalaciones de la persona u organización que usa el software, en lugar de en una instalación remota, como una granja de servidores o la nube.

Seria como una clase Dropbox pero dentro de tu AWS

esta ip que solicituda, es la publica de tu on-premise o interna, debe ser estatica o puede ser por dhcp ? saludos

bastante util para hacer la migracion controlada y facil de administrar.

completo y flexible y fácil de usar para migración de data center 😃

no sale la instalación de esta imagen? y la configuración tampoco?

Instancias que pueden ser usadas:

VMware ESXi
Microsoft Hyper-V 2008 R2
Microsoft Hyper-V 2012
Amazon EC2
Hardware Appliance

Excelente clase.
