VEEAM IMMUTABLE BACKUP - How to configure your QNAP NAS using QuObjects
What Are Immutable Backups?
Before implementing an immutable backup solution, you need to understand what an immutable backup is. Immutable means that something is unable to be changed or deleted. Usually, immutable backups can only be deleted once a set time period has expired. Immutable backup data is safe from potential changes or deletions, meaning that its original integrity stays intact. With the rise of Ransomware, having an immutable backup has become critical for recovery. This is because threat actors now routinely attack backups. With an immutable backup that data is protected from these types of attacks.
Why Are Immutable Backups Important?
Not only do immutable backups help you recover after a ransomware event, but they also serve other purposes when it comes to designing and implementing a resilient data protection strategy. An example of this is recovering after accidental deletion. A few years ago, a government agency was in the news after deleting a large number of files that affected multiple people outside their organization. After investigation, it was determined that this agency had no backups to recover because these files had either expired or were deleted as part of a data cleanup exercise. Unfortunately, this was a highly public data loss event that drew national negative publicity, resulting in a few individuals losing their jobs. This organization is not alone, since many other companies have suffered from the same type of data loss event, whether accidental or malicious. These events just haven’t been publicized. Immutability strategies drive stakeholders to have direct conversations that outline what their business service level agreements (s) need to be in order to recover critical data successfully. So why not use immutability for everything and have it turned on forever to avoid accidental data deletion? Since immutability generally needs to have an agreed-upon availability window, there can be other risks involved. Having immutable backups that are too long can endanger unnecessary storage consumption and drive up the cost of storing that data. This can also increase the chance of data sprawl, which can create challenges when managing overhead for your storage administrators/team. On the contrary, too short retention periods can potentially risk the failure of an organization’s ability to recover critical data. This can have legal consequences and impact reputation, all of which cause employees to lose their jobs.
When running out of QuObjects storage space, many options exist to expand its object storage. Compared with other services on the market, which can cost tens of thousands of dollars, QNAP QuObjects provides an affordable alternative.
You can integrate QuObjects with S3-compatible cloud environments to create a hybrid cloud storage structure. You can greatly reduce cloud storage costs by backing up cold data from the cloud to on-premises QuObjects.
QuTScloud, a virtual appliance based on QNAP’s QTS NAS operating system, can be implemented as a virtual machine running on on-premises hypervisors (including Linux® KVM, Microsoft® Hyper-V, and VMware ESXi™). By simply installing QuObjects from the App Center, organizations can easily attain an S3-compatible object storage environment on their existing virtualization platforms for optimal cost-efficiency.
