Seconding Tarsnap. Can't recommend it enough.

  Can you comment on your ability to successfully restore from backup? I know of organisations that diligently back up their data, but fail to regularly check that they can restore from backups.
  - wwortiz 16y ago
    I've restored a couple times and done some tests, the transfer speed seemed a little slow but I don't know if it was on tarsnaps end or mine. The server that I've done and tested restores for is only about 1.5 gb of information/configs.

      The one time I had a huge failure and needed to restore I found Tarsnap amazingly slow. Between that and the overly complicated pricing I'm going to consider something else going forward.

  Tarsnap costs 2-3x more than Amazon S3, and S3 is already several times more expensive than it should be. What is the advantage of Tarsnap over S3 and one of its many clients?
  - japherwocky 16y ago
    it does one thing very well

      price gouging?

    Tarsnap also does encryption and compression. Now you might be able to implement something like that better then cperciva, but I know I sure as hell am not capable of implementing any system as secure as reliable as him. Does this knowledge cost money? Yes. Is it worth it? Well, that depends on you.

      As does CrashPlan, and deduplication too, and it's cheaper than S3. It also runs on Solaris, Windows, etc., using file system monitoring to pick up changes.
    - jasondavies 16y ago
      JungleDisk does encryption and you only have to pay for S3 usage after the one-off license fee.

        Is that offer still available? I was under the impression that any new subscribers had to pay a monthly fee and it had been that way for a year or more.
