EC2 instance disk publish — publish point-in-time volume disks and copy the necessary files and folders to the target server.
Restore to Microsoft Azure — restore EC2 instances from image-level backups to Microsoft Azure as Azure VMs.
Restore to Google Cloud — restore EC2 instances from image-level backups to Google Cloud as VM instances.
