AWS Storage Gateway connects an on-premises software appliance with cloud-based storage to provide seamless integration with data security features between your on-premises IT environment and the AWS storage infrastructure. You can use the service to store data in the Amazon Web Services Cloud for scalable and cost-effective storage that helps maintain data security
Use OpsRamp AWS Public cloud Integration to discover and collect metrics against AWS Storage Gateway.

Setup
To set up the AWS integration and discover the Storage Gateway resources, do the following:
- Create an AWS Integration if not available in your installed integrations. For more information on how to install the AWS Integration, refer to Installation and Configuration.
- Create a discovery profile. For more information on how to create a discovery profile, refer to Create Discovery Profile.
- Select
Storage Gatewayunder the Filter Criteria in the Edit Discovery Profile page.
AWS Integration Discovery Profile
- Save the discovery profile to make them available in the list of Discovery Profiles.
- Scan to discover the resources at any time independent of the predefined schedule.
- Once the scan is completed, you can view the Storage Gateway resources under Infrastructure > Resources > AWS category.
