STORAGE & BACKUPS
A place for
what matters.
Keep files organised. Keep recovery in mind. Two different needs, clearly separated.

STORE WITH INTENT
Two different jobs.
Two clear paths.
Object storage holds files. VM backups support machine recovery. One does not replace the other.

Files, with a
place of their own.
Organise objects into buckets and consider how access keys should be used. Keep that file-storage decision distinct from VM backup planning.
- Objects and buckets
- Access-key management
- A dedicated file-storage workflow
THINK BEYOND THE FIRST COPY
What you keep.
How you
come back.
A good conversation covers both. Discuss the files you want to store and the machine you may need to recover, with retention, access and restore expectations made explicit.

How is object storage different from a VM backup?
Object storage organises files as objects in buckets. A VM backup is a separate recovery mechanism for a virtual machine. Select and verify the service appropriate to each need.
What retention is included?
Review the backup schedule, retention and restoration scope with your chosen service before you order.
Can object storage replace VM backups?
They serve different purposes. Use object storage for files organised in buckets, and discuss VM backup requirements separately for machine recovery.
