AWS Backup now supports Amazon FSx for Lustre, Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP, Amazon FSx for OpenZFS, and Amazon FSx for Windows File Server in the Asia Pacific (New Zealand) Region.

With this launch, you can use AWS Backup to centrally automate and manage data protection for your Amazon FSx file systems in the Asia Pacific (New Zealand) Region, alongside your other supported AWS resources. You can create policy-based backup plans to schedule backups and apply retention rules, store backups in encrypted vaults, and restore file systems when needed. This helps you meet business continuity, disaster recovery, and regulatory compliance requirements from a single, centralized service.
