Amazon EFS Protection provides cloud-native data protection for Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) file shares. Druva’s Amazon EFS Protection is a backup and recovery solution that enables you to back up, monitor, and restore EFS data using Druva's secure, air-gapped storage infrastructure.

Key capabilities

Druva’s Amazon EFS Protection includes the following features to protect your EFS data:

  • True air-gapped backups: Store backups in Druva's isolated security domain, completely outside your AWS account and IAM control.

  • Granular file-level backup and restore: Back up and restore individual files, folders, or entire EFS file systems.

  • Instant data discoverability: Effortless file retrieval with advanced metadata search to scan across multiple backup sets using file names or wildcards.

  • Deduplication: Reduce storage consumption through intelligent deduplication. By identifying and storing only unique data blocks across your entire environment, Druva minimizes your storage footprint.

  • Flexible, multi-Account recovery and Resilience: Granular restore of specific files or entire file systems to alternate AWS environments, ensuring data access and operational continuity against regional outages or account-level compromises.

  • Ephemeral agent architecture: Scale your infrastructure efficiently with ephemeral agents that provision and terminate on-demand, slashing operational complexity and 24/7 proxy costs.
