AWS Backup extends Amazon FSx support to 5 additional AWS Regions and expands cross-Region and cross-account copy to 14 AWS Regions

AWS BackupAWS · Storage

AWS Backup is expanding support for Amazon FSx for Windows File Server, Amazon FSx for OpenZFS, and Amazon FSx for Lustre with two regional enhancements.

First, AWS Backup now supports backup and restore of these FSx file systems in 5 additional AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Malaysia, Taipei, Thailand), Canada West (Calgary), and Mexico (Central). You can now centrally manage FSx backup policies, automate backup schedules, and monitor backup activity through AWS Backup in these Regions.

Second, AWS Backup now supports cross-Region and cross-account copy of FSx backups in 14 Regions: Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Hyderabad, Jakarta, Malaysia, Melbourne, Taipei, Thailand), Canada West (Calgary), Europe (Milan, Spain, Zurich), Israel (Tel Aviv), and Mexico (Central). This capability is available for both on-demand copies and scheduled backup plans with copy rules. With support in opt-in Regions, you can also store FSx backups in AWS Backup logically air-gapped vaults, providing additional defense against inadvertent or malicious deletions and helping you recover from ransomware events.

You can now configure cross-Region and cross-account copy rules to meet your compliance and business continuity requirements. To learn more, visit the AWS Backup feature availability page.
