Great show so far! Some awesome improvements to FSx for NetApp ONTAP and there was some serious buzz about the platform.

So … the backups are snapmirror under the hood. Just to AWS’s own NetApp kit?
And the scale out is flexgroups spread across multiple nodes? I notice he specifically said windows and Mac … so he’s talking cifs and nfs multiprotocol NAS? Which is why backups for flexgroups are now a thing?
