Being a managed service provider offering Backup up as a Service (BaaS) for AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud can be daunting. You may end up trying to decipher the best solution just by combing through marketplace ads and descriptions. Deciding what’s needed and what’s not needed is crucial to ensure that you provide a cost-effective and efficient backup system that’s not only good for your customer but (let’s be honest) good for you as well.

In our research-powered blog series for 2022, we recently discussed why cloud-powered data protection is inevitable for most environments. In fact, it’s fair to say that while many already leverage cloud-powered data protection as either a repository, a backup service, or a DR capability (or some combination), there are others still exploring whether and how to utilize cloud-powered backup. To help understand these market trends, in October 2021, Veeam published what is believed to be the largest BaaS/DRaaS research survey with 1,050 IT leaders weighing in on Data Protection as-a-Service.

Last week, we discussed how there is no such thing as “the cloud” — but instead, there are multiple types of cloud-based services that affect both your production and your protection strategies.

But each and every cloud, used for both protection and production, will have significant ramifications on IT’s ability to deliver what the business units expect; namely, reliable and resilient assured access to the data that they rely on every day.
