Deploying NATS.io for VB365 with Podman

With the release of Veeam's Backup for Microsoft365 version 8 Veeam has begun the move to a more distributed and cloud native approach to supporting the product. The end result is the capability known as proxy pools, where you can create a pool of worker VMs, or proxies, that jobs can have many object storage backed repositories assigned to it and then jobs can load balance across the entire pool for processing.

Synology DS923+: Immutable Microsoft365 Protection

In continuing my look at the latest generation Synology DS devices, in this case a DS923+, one aspect that I'm continually impressed with is DSM's simple to use ActiveBackup capabilities for cloud services Microsoft365 and Google Workspaces. For many organizations a small, low cost solution coupled with an offsite copy is sufficient for practical data protection as well as compliance needs.

Two Simple Ways To Immutability With Synology

In today's data protection world the ability to write data with periodic immutability is the golden ring that everybody reaches for. This is because we are long past the days where the biggest threat to our data as it lives in production is physical disaster, today's disaster is ransomware, malware, deletion or any other form of data security. If you are unfamiliar with the term immutability in the sense of data storage means that once…

VMware Edge Cloud Orchestrator: VMware For The Very Small Masses

Not everybody who needs on-premises virtualization and wants to use VMware vSphere needs full blown VCF. ~Me That leading quote is just as jump off the page as VMware's presenters, Alan Renouf and Chris Taylor, ask that we forget everything we know about Broadcom's acquisition of VMware. This was done during their presentation at Edge Field Day 3 about their product, …

Spinning Disk Use Cases Are Getting Smaller

As I’ve previously mentioned I was fortunate enough to recently attend the joint SNIA’s Storage Developer 2023 Conference and Gestalt Storage Field Day 26 Event. At these events we both heard directly from companies in *FD style but also dove deep into the storage realm with an excellent collection of breakout sessions. One thing you did not hear much about at either event was traditional spinning hard disks.
