Backing up the Cloud On-Site

Cloud services are great—until they aren’t. Whether it’s user error, ransomware, or just the unpredictability of “the cloud,” every IT consultant knows that having a local backup plan is essential. This month, we’ll be diving into Backing up the Cloud On-Site, with a hands-on demonstration of Synology NAS and its ability to safeguard Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace data.

Got a different way to back up cloud services on-prem? Bring your expertise and let’s debate the best strategies! This will be a mix of demonstration, discussion, and good ol’ fashioned IT shop talk.

To accommodate the live demo, we'll meet at the office of Justin Swall, member of the OCCA. See Location details below.
