Yes. In addition to using EBS, users may directly backup and restore to and from Amazon S3. Using Teradata Data Stream Controller, this capability applies whether the source is a cloud or on-premises Teradata system and whether the restore target is a cloud or on-premises Teradata system. The benefit of using low-cost Amazon S3 is that users pay only for what’s used and storage scales automatically. It is easy to create and manage jobs in Viewpoint for backup and restore at the database or object level, and incremental backup means that only changed blocks are streamed from the database. Multiple parallel data streams between each Teradata node and the Amazon S3 storage bucket minimizes backup and restore windows.
