[OPLINTECH] Offsite backup software

[Ed Liddle]

Fred,
We are looking into co locating a server with Oplin at the SOCC. Oplin mentioned that if a co-located server is used by more than one library, oplin will not charge a fee to have it co located there.  We are planning on working with a neighboring library to share the co-located server and will work out the hardware and backup software costs with the other library. We are primarily looking at backing up hyperV VMs

I hope this helps!

Good Morning Everyone,

Was wondering what other library systems are using for their offsite backups? We were moving our offsite backups to USB drives and then switching them out every week. We have looked at trial cloud software with a 14 day retention and I feel $67 a month can add up very quickly over time. Maybe I’m wrong and that’s on the cheaper side.

We’re using a FreeNas Mini 2.0 NAS storage box for our disaster recovery backup currently. Our offsite backups size is relatively small and it’s just for our File Server and SQL Server.

Comments or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
