Use NetApp data services with S3 buckets

Contributors netapp-tonacki netapp-bcammett

After you discover S3 buckets in BlueXP, you can use NetApp data services for backup, tiering, classification, and data synchronization.

  • Use BlueXP backup and recovery to back up data from your on-premises ONTAP and Cloud Volumes ONTAP systems to S3 object storage.

    To get started, go to the Canvas and drag and drop an on-premises ONTAP or Cloud Volumes ONTAP working environment on your Amazon S3 working environment.

  • Use BlueXP tiering to tier inactive data from on-premises ONTAP clusters to S3 object storage.

    To get started, go to the Canvas and drag and drop an on-premises ONTAP working environment on your Amazon S3 working environment.

  • Use BlueXP copy and sync to synchronize data to or from S3 buckets.

    To get started, go to the Canvas and drag and drop the source working environment on the target working environment. Your Amazon S3 working environment can be either the source or target.

    You can also select your Amazon S3 working environment and click Copy & sync from the Services panel to synchronize data to or from S3 buckets.

  • Use BlueXP classification to scan your S3 buckets for personal and sensitive data. BlueXP classification can scan any bucket in the account, regardless of whether it was created for a NetApp solution.

    To get started, select your Amazon S3 working environment and select the appropriate option from the Classification section of the Services panel to initiate scanning of your S3 buckets.
