Which solution will meet these requirements?
Use an AWS Storage Gateway file gateway to provide file storage to AWS, then perform analytics on this data in the AWS Cloud.
Use an AWS Storage Gateway tape gateway to copy the backup of the local data to AWS, then perform analytics on this data in the AWS cloud.
Use an AWS Storage Gateway volume gateway in a stored volume configuration to regularly take snapshots of the local data, then copy the data to AWS.
Use an AWS Storage Gateway volume gateway in a cached volume configuration to back up all the local storage in the AWS cloud, then perform analytics on this data in the cloud.
Explanations:
An AWS Storage Gateway file gateway allows for file storage that can be accessed via the NFS protocol on-premises, while also enabling data to be moved to AWS for analytics, fulfilling both requirements.
A tape gateway is designed for backup and archiving, not for real-time data access or NFS protocol. This does not meet the requirement of accessing data for local processing.
A volume gateway in stored volume configuration primarily focuses on block storage and snapshots for backup, which doesn’t allow direct NFS access for local data processing as needed.
A cached volume configuration is mainly used for reducing local storage needs by caching frequently accessed data in the cloud. It does not provide direct NFS access for local processing of the entire dataset.
I think the answer is:
Use an AWS Storage Gateway file gateway to provide file storage to AWS, then perform analytics on this data in the AWS Cloud.
