Integrate Backblaze B2 Instant Recovery in Any Cloud with Veeam Instant Recovery on PhoenixNAP

The Backblaze Instant Recovery in Any Cloud solution provides an easy and flexible path to as-soon-as-possible disaster recovery in the event of a ransomware attack or a natural disaster. The solution works through a pre-built code package that IT staff can use to create a digital mirror image of the infrastructure they deployed on-premises. So if disaster strikes, you can run the code to quickly bring up an orchestrated combination of on-demand servers, firewalls, networking, storage, and other infrastructure in Any Cloud, drawing data over immediately from Veeam Backup & Replication backups. 

This solution requires a basic knowledge of Ansible, Git, and Veeam Backup & Replication.
