This collaboration delivers fully integrated cloud backup and disaster recovery, combining the best of on-premise and cloud technologies.

This blog delves into how the integration of TrueNAS and ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù delivers the 3-2-1 backup strategy providing  robust data protection and disaster recovery. We’ll also explore how TrueNAS and ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù enable a higher frequency of backup to optimize Recovery Point Objective (RPO), Recovery Time Objective (RTO), and improve the economics of data storage, ensuring businesses can recover quickly and cost-effectively from disruptions.

Why TrueNAS and ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù are a perfect match.

Managing and safeguarding data is critical in this evolving digital landscape. For users of TrueNAS, the leader in mission critical open enterprise storage, the challenge is  extending on-premise systems to the cloud in a way that is scalable, secure, and cost-effective. That’s where ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù, a leader in distributed cloud storage, comes in.

This integrated solution solves backup challenges faced by businesses of all sizes with benefits that include:

1. Enhanced backup and data security.

TrueNAS provides local storage redundancy, while ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù extends this redundancy to the cloud in a globally distributed manner. Key features include:

• Zero-knowledge encryption and erasure-coding ensure that your data is safe in transit and at rest.
• Distributed cloud storage reduces risks from region-specific outages while aligning with compliance needs.
• The ability to cost effectively create unlimited snapshots and copies improves Recovery Point Objective (RPO).

For organizations adhering to the 3-2-1 Backup Strategy (3 copies, 2 media types, 1 off-site), this partnership heightens data safety.

2. Disaster recovery & compliance simplified.

Disaster recovery is critical for business resilience. By leveraging ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù for off-site cloud backups you can:

• Recover and restore data quickly regardless of location thanks to fast global performance, optimizing your Recovery Time Objective (RTO).
• Align with key compliance standards like SOC 2 for sensitive data across industries.
• Request geo-fencing options to store data only in regions you trust.

²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù and TrueNAS provide unparalleled disaster recovery readiness and compliance assurance for your organization.

3. The best economics for global fault tolerance.

Traditional cloud storage often incurs hidden costs with growing data volumes. ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù changes the game:

• With up to 80% lower costs than traditional providers, ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù ensures your backup strategy remains cost-efficient over time.
• Combined with the economics of TrueNAS open enterprise appliances, you achieve enterprise-grade data resilience without breaking the bank.

Cost efficiency in data protection allows businesses to focus resources on growth and innovation instead of ballooning infrastructure expenses.

4. Unmatched resilience and reliability.

Distributed cloud storage naturally offers greater resilience over centralized systems. ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù applies geographical distribution to minimize risks associated with hardware failures, cyberattacks, and even natural disasters.

• Data durability of eleven nines (99.999999999%) for peace of mind
• Built-in versioning and immutability safeguard against malicious threats like ransomware.

Coupled with TrueNAS, you can trust your data is always protected and readily available.

5. Eco-friendly backup solution.

Sustainability is more than a buzzword—it's a business imperative. The ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù model uses idle storage capacities around the globe, reducing energy dependence on centralized data centers.

• With significantly lower carbon emissions, ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù enables organizations to reduce their environmental footprint.
• TrueNAS’s energy-efficient architecture complements ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù for a green storage strategy.

How Geiger Ready-Mix transformed backup and storage resilience.

Geiger Ready-Mix, a manufacturer and distributor of concrete and building materials, faced significant challenges with their backup system, which relied on onsite active directories and a TrueNAS appliance. While TrueNAS offered robust local storage, Geiger wanted to adopt a complete set of 3-2-1 best practices. The on premise solution on its own left Geiger vulnerable to security risks in the face of disaster recovery scenarios and ransomware attacks.

Seeking a secure, efficient, and cost-effective cloud storage solution, Geiger evaluated several options, including Azure and AWS. They ultimately chose ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù for its affordability, security, and distributed cloud architecture, which complemented their existing TrueNAS system and enabled them to fully implement 3-2-1 backup best practices.

By adopting ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù, Geiger met their critical data security and cost objectives while maintaining a simplified backup process, ensuring their business remains resilient and ready for the future.
