Tape may be cheap, but disk is better for backups

from The Backup Wrap-Up

This isn't a rebuttal to last week's podcast, but it might seem that way. Last week we talked about the advantages of tape for very long term retention (e.g. 10 years), one of which is a significant cost advantage. This week we will discuss how backup, recovery, and disaster recovery are very different use cases, and why disk and cloud is a much more appropriate place for that use case. Joining us to discuss this topic is Druva's CTO, Stephen Manley, who has spent many years at companies that use disk for this purpose.
