Hi All,

I've posted a couple of questions here in the last few months about our
12-month test of switching Bacula to using virtual tapes, drives and
changers through the AWS Storage Gateway.

We are about 10 months into our test and after overcoming a bunch of
hurdles, things seem to be going very well.

However, I wanted to ask if anyone else has or is using the AWS Storage
Gateway (or a similar, cloud setup) to manage backups? What concerns do you
have? What issues have you run into?

I ask because I value this community's expertise and also because there are
very few others who have publically documented a similar test in their
infrastructure.

One remaining concern which I have (not related to Bacula at all) is the
time it would take to conduct a complete system restore due to needing to
transfer the data from AWS to our local. Even with their fast connection, a
150 GB transfer could take about 24 hours.

Any thoughts on this or other cloud-based tape backup solutions using
Bacula?
