About archiving to the cloud
With the Unitrends CloudHook™ feature, you can archive your backups to cloud storage managed by a service provider. When a cloud storage bucket or container is added to a Unitrends appliance, the appliance creates an S3QL file system on it and recognizes the storage bucket as external NAS storage to which it can archive local or replicated backups. Once backups are archived to the cloud, you can restore them to any Unitrends appliance that supports CloudHook. This feature simplifies the archiving process by eliminating the need for you to manage archive media in an offsite location and then retrieve it if you need to restore the archived data.
