The AWS Storage Gateway sits between your applications and Amazon storage services. The performance you experience depends on the host platform (hardware appliance, virtual machine, Amazon EC2 instance) you are using to run Storage Gateway software, along with a number of other factors. These include the network bandwidth between your iSCSI initiator or NFS client and gateway, the speed and configuration of your underlying local disks, the configuration of your VM, the amount of local storage allocated to your gateway, and the bandwidth between your gateway and Amazon storage. Our technical documentation provides guidance on how to optimize your AWS Storage Gateway environment for best performance.
