Hybrid Sync

Synchronize data between Spinifex and AWS when network connectivity is available.

hybridsyncs3

Overview

Spinifex's hybrid mode enables bidirectional data synchronization between local infrastructure and AWS cloud services. Ideal for intermittent connectivity environments.


Prerequisites

Ensure the AWS profile is set:

bash
export AWS_PROFILE=spinifex

Push Local to Cloud

bash
aws s3 sync s3://local-bucket/ s3://cloud-bucket/ \
  --source-region spinifex --region us-east-1

Pull Cloud to Local

bash
aws s3 sync s3://cloud-bucket/ s3://local-bucket/ \
  --source-region us-east-1 --region spinifex

EBS Volume Backup

bash
rsync -avz /data/ user@cloud-server:/backup/spinifex-data/

Troubleshooting

Sync Fails Mid Transfer

S3 sync is idempotent — re-run the same command to resume where it left off:

bash
aws s3 sync s3://local-bucket/ s3://cloud-bucket/ \
  --source-region spinifex --region us-east-1

Only changed or missing files will be transferred on subsequent runs.
