For companies who still rely on on-premises data centers, but want to leverage the unlimited space of cloud storage, AWS\u2019s Storage Gateway can provide direct access to S3.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_Of_Storage_Gateway\"><\/span>Types Of Storage Gateway<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Storage Gateway is a cloud storage solution that is meant to be deployed on-premises. You install the software on a device in your rack. It connects to Amazon S3, and provides more traditional file-based and block-level access that will make the transition to the cloud a lot easier, without requiring major reworks of existing <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lication infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Storage Gateway can be configured as a cache for frequently accessed data in S3, which can speed up access from connected applications. If your on-premises applications are suffering in performance from needing to access S3 over the internet (or using AWS Direct Connect), Storage Gateway can provide a speed boost by storing the important stuff locally.<\/p>\n<p>Storage Gateway has a few different types, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/storagegateway\/pricing\/?tag=reviewgeek-20\">each with their own prices<\/a>. In <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>, you\u2019ll be paying for data stored, as well as for data written to the gateway.<\/p>\n<p>The first type is File Gateway, which is the most common, and simply provides file-level access for storing data in S3. Data will be cached on the unit running Storage Gateway, using as much space as you allocate to it. File gateway charges standard S3 prices, as well as\u00a0$0.01 per GB of data written.<\/p>\n<p>The other main type is Volume Gateway, which provides more traditional block-level access, and can be used to create an iSCSI block storage volume using S3. The volume gateway will also create regular point-in-time backups using EBS snapshots. There are two configurations for volume gateways\u2014cached volumes, which work like File Gateway and cache cloud content locally for performance, and stored volumes, which store all data locally, but leverage S3 for offsite backups. Volume Gateway charges\u00a0$0.023 per GB-month of data stored, as well as\u00a0$0.01 per GB of data written.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4309\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cloudsavvyit.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/c14bd5d7193cfb5aec241cf0f62dd508\/p\/uploads\/2020\/03\/871688eb.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"172\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Lastly, there\u2019s Virtual Tape Gateway, which allows access to S3 in a tape-based format. Companies stuck on legacy systems and still using tape backups are more common than you\u2019d think, and this option gives them an easy way to modernize their storage without breaking any underlying system that relies on tape backups. Tape Gateway charges\u00a0$0.023 per GB-month of data stored, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/storagegateway\/pricing\/?nc=sn&amp;loc=3&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">as well as various transfer charges<\/a>, but you can also use S3 Glacier and Deep Archive.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Get_Started\"><\/span>How To Get Started<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To get started, head over to the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/redirect.viglink.com?u=https%3A%2F%2Fconsole.aws.amazon.com%2Fstoragegateway%2F&amp;key=204a528a336ede4177fff0d84a044482\">Storage Gateway Management Console<\/a> and create a new gateway.
