Amazon FSx for Windows File Server, a fully-managed service that provides file storage built on Windows Server, now supports File Server Resource Manager (FSRM), a Windows Server feature that provides powerful capabilities to manage, govern, and monitor your file data. With FSRM, you can better control storage usage, strengthen compliance, and optimize costs across your FSx for Windows file systems.
With this launch, you can now classify, identify, and control sensitive data using file classification and file screening, control storage usage and costs using folder-level quotas, and better understand and optimize your storage usage with storage reports. FSRM on FSx for Windows File Server is also deeply integrated with AWS observability services. You can publish FSRM events directly to Amazon CloudWatch Logs or stream events to Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, allowing you to query, process, store, and archive logs, trigger AWS Lambda functions to take reactive actions based on file events, and perform advanced monitoring and analysis to automate administration of your file data.
FSRM support is available today at no additional cost for new file systems in all AWS Regions where Amazon FSx for Windows File Server is available. Existing file systems will receive FSRM support during an upcoming maintenance window. To get started, visit File Server Resource Manager in the FSx for Windows User Guide and read the blog Using File Server Resource Manager (FSRM) on Amazon FSx for Windows File Server.
