Update: You might want to check this new StarWind Free offer and StarWind Cloud VTL?
Starwind Cloud VTL
The new solution complies with the existing rules and the established data archival process by using virtual tape library from StarWind.
The Backup Process:
It’s Disk to > Disk to > Cloud backup process.
No additional hardware is necessary as StarWind installs on the same machine as Veeam Backup server.
StarWind Cloud VTL Benefits and Features
- Helps meeting the regulatory data retention requirements using reliable and scalable backup storage.
- Specifically designed for AWS and Veeam for a robust and seamless data protection experience.
- Reduces data management costs by replacing costly legacy tape process with a scalable and flexible solution using local disks, Amazon S3 and Glacier storage.
Even today, some businesses are using the old school physical tape shipment off-site to comply with the 3-2-1 rule? In fact, I recently found out that not everyone is actually aware of the 3-2-1 rule.
What is the 3-2-1 rule?
It’s simple. You must keep three copies of data on two different medias where one copy is in an offsite location.
StarWind Cloud VTL for AWS and Veeam actually allows data archival and retention requirements using cloud storage tier by using Amazon AWS. By using a high performing, scalable, and cost-efficient tape alternative by using on-premises StarWind Virtual Tape Libraries (VTL) with Amazon S3 and Glacier storage.
