AWS Direct Connect is a network service that allows you to establish a dedicated network connection from your on-premises data center to AWS. This connection bypasses the public Internet and can provide more reliable, lower-latency communication between your on-premises application and Amazon S3. By directing backup traffic through the AWS Direct Connect connection, you can minimize the impact on your internet bandwidth and ensure timely backups to S3.
To prevent or mitigate future accidental deletions, consider the following features:
- Enable versioning to keep historical versions of an object.
- Enable Cross-Region Replication of objects.
- Enable MFA delete to require multi-factor authentication (MFA) when deleting an object version.
Amazon Macie is a data security and data privacy service that uses machine learning (ML) and pattern matching to discover and protect your sensitive data
EC for Redis: Durability is a consideration, but the primary use case is caching
EFS: Durability is a core feature for file-based data
Amazon EFS provides the necessary combinations of high availability, durability.
EFS is a better solution for the catalog storage than ElastiCache, S3 Glacier, or a larger EC2 instance store. Moving the catalog to EFS would meet the requirements for high availability and durable storage.
Amazon ElastiCache – Real-time performance for real-time applications
Delivers real-time performance, and enables applications to scale instantly. ElastiCache is compatible with two open-source caching solutions: Redis and Memcached.
Amazon S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval storage class
Amazon S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval is an archive storage class that delivers the lowest-cost storage for long-lived data that is rarely accessed and requires retrieval in milliseconds.

Amazon S3 Intelligent-Tiering
- Frequent, Infrequent, and Archive Instant Access tiers have the same low-latency and high-throughput performance of S3 Standard
- The Infrequent Access tier saves up to 40% on storage costs
- The Archive Instant Access tier saves up to 68% on storage costs
- Opt-in asynchronous archive capabilities for objects that become rarely accessed
- Archive Access and Deep Archive Access tiers have the same performance as S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval and S3 Glacier Deep Archive and save up to 95% for rarely accessed objects
- Designed for durability of 99.999999999% of objects across multiple Availability Zones and for 99.9% availability over a given year
- No operational overhead, no lifecycle charges, no retrieval charges, and no minimum storage duration
AWS Systems Manager Patch Manager: Patch Manager is designed to automate the process of patching managed instances with both security-related and other types of updates. However, it’s more suited for general operating system patches and might not be directly applicable for third-party software unless the patches for that software are distributed through the same mechanisms as OS patches.
AWS Systems Manager Run Command: Run Command allows you to remotely and securely manage the configuration of your EC2 instances at scale. You can use it to execute custom shell scripts or commands across multiple instances simultaneously. This capability makes it particularly well-suited for situations where a rapid response is required, such as applying a critical patch to third-party software across many instances.
