Posted on: Jan 16, 2019

Backup Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) with AWS Backup.

AWS Backup is a fully managed backup service that makes it easy to centralize and automate the back up of data across AWS services in the cloud as well as on premises. With AWS Backup, protecting your AWS resources, such as Amazon EFS file systems, is as easy as a few clicks in the AWS Backup console. Customers can configure and audit the AWS resources they want to back up, automate backup scheduling, set retention policies, and monitor all recent backup and restore activity.

Amazon EFS integration with AWS Backup removes the need for costly, customer solutions or manual processes by providing a fully managed, policy based backup solution that provides automated backup scheduling and backup retention management. 

AWS Backup is available in the US East (Northern Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), and EU (Ireland) regions. For more information on where Amazon EFS and AWS Backup is available, see the AWS region table. For pricing information in your region, please visit the AWS Backup pricing page.
