Introducing Tagging Support for AWS Storage Gateway
AWS Storage Gateway now allows you to tag your gateways, volumes, and virtual tapes. Tags are labels you can define and associate with your AWS resources, which provide filtering capabilities on operations such as generating AWS usage or cost reports. For example, you can use tags to allocate Storage Gateway costs and usage between departments in your organization. You can then view the Storage Gateway costs for a particular department over a period of time, or identify the department with the most Storage Gateway usage.
