Hi,

What is the role of the Metallic Backup Gateway on AWS?

Is there any scenario where this GW is not required?

How to dimensioning/size this GW?

@cesar , is this for a Metallic setup?

Here’s the link for the gateway docs:

https://docs.metallic.io/metallic/115922_metallic_backup_gateway.html 

The backup gateway functions as a gateway between a data source and the Metallic cloud backup service. The backup gateway resides adjacent to the data source to provide low latency and high performance.

The following cases require a backup gateway:

  • You want to protect on-premises applications

  • In addition to a cloud copy of the backup data, you need a local copy

  • The outbound network security is restricted or blocked from a data source

  • You want to protect cloud resources in Amazon Web Services (AWS)

As far as the sizing, let mew know your specific questions and I can investigate internally.

Thanks!
