Amazon Web Services (AWS) storage provides you with the services you need to build the storage solution that’s right for your organization. Hybrid storage services span location both on premises and in the cloud. You will discover the depth and breadth of hybrid storage service options available for you to choose from to meet your organization’s requirements.
The AWS hybrid storage services include Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) on AWS Outposts. They also include AWS Storage Gateway and Amazon File Cache storage offerings. You can select from these different service offerings and apply them to your organization’s needs. You can then determine the possible paths to take to arrive at the best storage solution. Before choosing an AWS storage solution, AWS recommends that you first assess what storage characteristics are appropriate for your applications and business.
