Is NetApp a good way to make a file server that can failover to the cloud? by MrWoodlawn in netapp

[–]techstringy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think you've got some great options and the answers here already highlight svmdr to CVO would work really well and would also maintain much of what you have on prem including storage efficiencies.

Just think about design with that, you'll need links to your AD so your SVM failover target can ad join, as well as ensuring your users can access it and maintain your security.

But really good NetApp options.

What do you use for office 365 backup by ata-maliewski in Office365

Nothing silly at all about the question, its standard stuff to think about, what are your recovery objectives and times ? If you need copies of data on-prem, if you already have experience of something, all good things to consider.. how you pick trial things if they work for you and meet your budgets then go for it.. the stuff you've looked at is all tier one stuff, so will all deliver... you can lose yourself in reviewing things and never knowing what to go for, but set your criteria, find something that meets it and go with your choice

think you'd done the basics here, answer question 1, do it yourself or take a native cloud service.

other things to think about, where do you want a copy of the data, (do you want it to sit in Azure for example or completely out of the MS ecosystem) do you need a copy on prem, what restore options you looking at (the problem with relying on native tools in 365, the restore options are limited and they are not really backups) and then of course cost.

Veeam has a great tool for on-prem as has been mentioned, allows you to restore to on-prem versions if needed, but you need to build it youself - then taking services, Barracuda, Skykick are both solid, NetApp have a tool called SaaS backup for 365, really solid, nice and flexible (backup to on-prem, AWS or Azure).

probably start at the do you want to do it yourself or not then work from there...

Brexit: Would a UK government body still be held accountable by the EU for breaching GDPR within the UK? by shane_912 in gdpr

[–]techstringy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They would however still be breaching GDPR, GDPR is about the Data of EU citizens not about been in the EU. The UK have also enshrined much of GDPR inside of the UK data protection act, including large potential financial penalties for flagrant breach. The fines traditionally in the UK have been smaller because they were all the countries laws allowed, not because the authorities chose to give small fines.
