Challenge: Selecting a backup and recovery storage solution

(upbeat music) - [Lecturer] You've been challenged to find a backup and recovery solution for your sales and inventory databases. The sales database is running in your data center on a traditional database. Your inventory database is running in a public cloud. There are hundreds of solutions that will work. You're specifically looking for a solution that will bring the most value back to the business. This value can be realized as providing more agility, more scaling, or just supporting an application that the business finds useful. You found through your research that cloud-based backup and recovery solutions are most cost effective, and you're looking to leverage a cloud-based backup and recovery solution for both databases, even though one exists in a data center and not on the cloud. So what will you look for in a cloud-based backup and recovery solution? What solutions will you pick and why?
