![]() ![]() Regardless of the dataset size, network bandwidth and frequency speed, Backblaze can optimize business performance with its durable and reliable design storage and compliance-compatible solutions. Backblaze also has an interactive, compact, and well-organized user interface. I’m not sure how much this has value on hosted solution vs a self hosted one.Īlso, this is just what I read in the specs if anyone has experience that contradicts it – I’d listen to them. It follows a back-up everything approach. So if there are concerns of having to many files in a single folder for an os then buckets has the advantage over folders. ![]() I can confirm that at least on minio s3 server each bucket is a true fs folder on the storage disk. If you look on the backside all the stored file are stored in the same folder with some internal to s3 magic to make it look like it is a folder. The one thing I know about s3 (is b2 s3 compatible?) is that ‘folders’ in s3 buckets are more like metadata. The B2 API is slightly better in that we dont go through. Backblaze offers two products: B2 Cloud Storage: An object storage service similar to Amazon’s S3. As long as you use multiple threads, I make the radical claim that B2 can be faster than Amazon S3. Having separate buckets helped keep corruption / rebuild to one backup set in self hosted environment. Descriptions Backblaze Backblaze’s amazing story on how they pivoted their business to Storage Pods is a recommended read for sure. Backblaze B2’s S3-compatible API does not completely match every feature available when using Amazon S3 natively. Note: These will likely be ongoing monthly charges, not one-time. It does make it easy to see if size matches up and I did some data moving and corrupted things. Gotchas If you migrate to Backblaze B2 from Amazon S3, you will incur charges related to intra-regional data transfer that AWS was not charging for. I named my buckets COMPUTER - backup - JOB NAME just for myself. ![]() It seemed ‘clean’ to me to use separate buckets per job. ![]()
