AWS Storage Gateway Launches Hardware Appliance
AWS recently announced that it has launched AWS Storage Gateway as a brand new hardware appliance. This allows you to use Storage Gateway even without a virtual environment, server-class hardware, or IT support staff.
You may now order the appliance from Amazon to be delivered to sites like branch offices, warehouses, and outposts that don’t have necessary IT resources for such storage.
