Question:
When to use aws direct connect and aws storage gateway. My question is these services seems to be similer, so what are use cases to use these two services.
Answer:
AWS Direct Connect is a network connection between AWS and on on-premises network. The physical connection is an optical fiber link organised through a Telco, while Direct Connect provisions the physical port where the fiber connects in an AWS transit center.
AWS Storage Gateway is a storage service that provisions a virtual tape drive, virtual S3 drive or virtual disk that is stored in AWS. It typically runs across a Direct Connect connection.
