You can use it to move digital assets such as databases, backups and media content. Example for a very large database would be to take an RMAN full backup a number of weeks in advance (to allow time for shipping to AWS) and then restore the standby and apply the redologs in AWS – keeping the database in sync with on premises. + [AWS DataSync](https://aws.amazon.com/datasync/) – Can be used to move large amounts of data online between on-premises storage and Amazon S3, [Amazon Elastic File System](https://aws.amazon.com/efs/) (Amazon EFS), [Amazon FSx for Windows File Server](https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/windows/), [Amazon FSx for Lustre](https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/lustre/), [Amazon FSx for OpenZFS](https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/openzfs/), or [Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP](https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/netapp-ontap/). + [AWS Storage Gateway](https://aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/) – Can be used for implementing hybrid cloud storage use cases such as moving backups to the cloud, or using on-premises file shares backed by cloud storage. + [AWS Direct Connect](https://aws.amazon.com/directconnect/) – Can be used to establish a dedicated network connection from on premises to AWS.
