Needless to say, Fujifilm is citing generative AI and other AI-related services as major drivers behind the growing demand for magnetic tape
LTO-10 tapes were released earlier this year, providing a native capacity of 40 terabytes.

Comeback? Tapes never went away. Most long term cold storage offerings are backed by tape

can i know what companies in your industry follow these trends please
cloud backup for anything actually important is just so damn silly
It has it’s uses.
But as any backup solution: Not a singular.
A proper backup concept has at least 3 copies on at least 2 different medias (types or amount matters only slightly) and one is not at the location of the original.
Veeam (a backup vendor) has expanded on it with 3-2-1-1-0.
1 = 1 Backup target is an immutable technology
0 = 0 errors on the backup (which expects a validation)
And I honestly like the idea.
yea no thx
especially if im paying for it
ot that im surprised companies would get lazy/cheap
You pay either way.
Up front or over a span of time…
What matters is what you need from your storage.
no i mean i would not pay for cloud storage for important stuff
Again: It depends.
I would use it as a storage provider on which I would put an encrypted veracrypt drive (or whatevee is the good stuff).
Or as an off-site storage provider for my backup.
As a single atorage site? Nah. Too expensive for my home needs.
For a business? If you can’t afford to drop 1200€ for 3x 4TB SSDs to bring your data backups off-site? Pretty good offering.
And the immutability is a plus as well.
and like i said please tell me what said companies are
Our clients use S3 as an offsite storage. About 2-3TB (deduplicated is possible) in storage usually.
Client is small and medium doctor offices.
