Quick refurbishing for EFS level recovery delivered through AWS Backup

AWS Backup is an authorised backup facility that makes it more convenient to configure and administer automatically, the back-up of data across AWS services in the cloud system that is on-premises utilising the AWS Storage Gateway. AWS Backup supports a sleek experience for Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) Item Level Recovery. Users can use AWS Backup to perform coarse recovery of individual files and folders from the Amazon EFS backups utilising an integrated console, for a simplified and quick restore experience, to conquer more rigid Recovery userTime Objective (RTO) needs. It automatises and consolidates backup tasks that are previously performed service-by-service and eliminates the requirements for creating custom scripts and manual processes. Utilising AWS Backup, users can compose the backup policies and administer the backup activity for AWS resources, such as Amazon EBS volumes, Amazon RDS databases, Amazon DynamoDB tables, Amazon EFS file systems, and AWS Storage Gateway volumes.

Now Amazon EFS CSI Driver Supported by Amazon EKS

Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) offers an easy, scalable and completely organised elastic network file system NFS for utilization with AWS Cloud Services and on-premises resources.

And now this CSI driver has introduced beta version and supported by Amazon EKS. This EFS CSI driver is easy to configure elastic file storage for EKS and self-managed kubernetes clusters working on AWS with the help of basic Kubernetes interfaces. Applications executing in Kubernetes can utilize EFS file systems to share data within pods in a scale-out group, or with other applications working inside or outside of Kubernetes. Besides, Amazon EFS support Kubernetes applications be extensively obtainable cause each data written to EFS is corresponded to several AWS Availability Zones. Refer documentation to design a Kubernetes StorageClass and a PersistentVolumeClaim to provision, then reference the PersistentVolumeClaim from the pods that use it. To get more details, go through Amazon EKS and Amazon EFS.

Amazon EFS limits can be controlled using AWS Service Quotas

Amazon EFS offers an easy, scalable, and completely organised elastic NFS file system for use with AWS Cloud services and on-premises resources. It is designed to scale on demand to petabytes without interrupting applications, increasing and decreasing automatically as you add and remove files, removing the requirement to deliver and control capacity to adjust expansion. Now Amazon EFS helps you manage limits with the help of AWS Service Quotas. Using AWS Service Quotas, you can check and handle your quotas smoothly and at scale as your AWS workloads expand.
