NBU 10.x direct backup to S3 storage

Happy new year everyone,


Has anyone tried NBU 10.x direct backup to S3-compatible object storage ? How is the backup / restoration performance ? what about dedupe ratio ?

 

Many thanks in advance :)

  • Hello Stella,

    Our S3 storage is not doing dedupe, so we are using MSDP-C to backup/copy data onto our on-prem S3 storage.

    Backup/restore performance highly depend on your backend s3 storage performance as well as the network setup.

    I cannot tell a lot about it as we don't store a lot that way, we mainly use MSDP on Flex.

    I would definitively suggest the use of MSDP-C to get dedupe out of the backups.
