11. Customer: Scripps Networks Interactive
Problem Statement:
• Need storage platform to manage active archive content
• Existing content repository too large to migrate via available
network-based ingest methods
Use of AWS:
• S3 and Snowball for massively scalable ingest
• S3 for storage, Glacier for content archive
• Snowball to securely transport existing media content from on-
premises storage and tape vault
Business Benefits:
• Petabyte-scale data transport without increased network costs
• Massive scalability and elasticity
• Lower TCO for active archive storage
Active archive transport and archival for digital content provider

12. EFS with DirectConnect (DX):
Working over a dedicated network

13. Access your EFS file system via AWS Direct Connect
Direct Connect EFS in your Amazon VPCOn-premises Servers

14. Three scenarios for working with file data across
on-premises environments and EFS
Bursting
Migration
 Move entire data set permanently to EFS
 Access the data from applications running on EC2 instances
 Move data set temporarily to EFS
 Access the data from applications running on EC2 instances
 Move data back on premises once processing finishes
Backup and Disaster
Recovery
 Maintain copy of entire data set on EFS
 Restore the data to on premises storage or (for DR) access the
data from failed-over applications running on EC2 instances

15. Amazon Kinesis:
streaming data

16. • Kinesis Streams
• Stores data as a
continuous replayable
stream for custom
applications
• Kinesis Firehose
• Load streaming data into
Amazon S3, Amazon
Redshift, and Amazon
Elasticsearch Service
• Kinesis Analytics
• Analyze data streams
using standard SQL
queries

30. Southern Oregon University Reduces Costs, Improves Disaster
Recovery by Moving Tape Backups to AWS Cloud
The university backs up to AWS
Storage Gateway, which stores
virtual tapes in Amazon S3 in AWS
US-East, and then archives them
onto Amazon Glacier as a low-cost,
long-term storage tier.
SOU’s magnetic tape libraries often
broke down, and managing physical
tapes required unpredictable
amounts of IT staff time.
Additionally, with tapes stored in
the same earthquake-prone region
as the university, it lacked
geographic separation for disaster-
recovery.
• Easy transition to cloud backup
for 30 TB per month of data
• New bi-coastal disaster recovery
protection
• Eliminated costs of physical
tapes, storage, and IT staff time
• No changes to workflow
required
”
“Using AWS Storage Gateway, we switched from physical to virtual
tape backup simply by dropping the gateway’s virtual appliance
into our existing Veeam workflow. Setting it all up took three
hours, at most. We can now provision virtual tapes on AWS with
the click of a button.”
