Amazon FSX for NetApp ONTAP

FSx for ONTAP is certified and designed to optimally answer the performance, resilience, and accessibility needs of business-critical workloads, delivering outstanding cost-performance results through a comprehensive and flexible set of storage features.

FSx for ONTAP supports multiple storage types in a single service:

• Easily provision file storage for NFS and/or SMB access
• Create shared block storage for iSCSI and NVMe/TCP access
• Deploy object storage buckets for S3 access

Multiprotocol support adds flexibility by letting you access data using different protocols simultaneously

• Both Multi-AZ and Single-AZ configurations are available with FSx for ONTAP
• Instant, point-in-time Snapshot copies protect your data with no performance overhead and minimal storage consumption
• Time- and space-efficient incremental backup and retrieval keeps your data resilient
• Maintain business continuity with built-in cross-region replication and automatic failover with 1-min RPO and minimal RTO

• Isolated data volumes, isolated traffic, and security per tenant provide data segregation within the same storage service via separate storage virtual machines (SVMs)
• Active Directory integration and file auditing allow full data access authentication and operational tracing
• Write-once-read-many (WORM) storage and tamperproof Snapshot copies keep your data immutable
• Autonomous ransomware protection, antivirus integration, and file screening provide comprehensive malware protection

• Thin provisioning, deduplication and compression shrink your data footprint
• Storage tiering automatically moves infrequently accessed data to a lower cost storage tier
• On demand throughput and IOPS levels at scale help maintain optimal performance at minimal cost

• Thin clones allow you to instantly create dev/test environments and refresh databases with near-zero additional capacity or costs
• Writable data caching makes local data copies accessible remotely, so your teams can collaborate wherever they’re located
• Efficient data replication quickly creates full secondary copies of your data to support disaster recovery, backup, and hybrid environment strategies
