Also, thanks a lot for spending your time making this container, we do appreciate this!

Hi Gleb,

This is a great news! I will contact you for sure :)

Thanks!

@jlesage You may remember me from CrashPlan Pro. What you don't know is their recent decision to change the exclusions in their service forced me to look elsewhere. When starting up, is this container pulling the fully supported version of CloudBerry Backup?

@BokhanGV On the assumption that @jlesage will respond yes, will CloudBerry labs support users who are running in a Docker container on Synology? I ask this because I see that you mothballed CloudBerry Backup for Synology and want to make sure it's OK to run your Linux product on Synology boxes.

If so, then I'll start a trial, spin up this image and see how it goes.

What do you mean by "pulling the fully supported version of CloudBerry Backup"? The container implements the same Linux version available on CloudBerry's website. Note that the Linux and Windows version don't have the same feature set.

You answered my question. I wanted to confirm you weren't pulling the Synology-specific version which CloudBerry Labs no longer supports.

I have never used their backup products on Windows or Linux but will try out the Linux version in the coming weeks. They have done an impressive job with their explorer for Azure and if their backup turns out to be the same caliber of product, there will be no need to shop further.

The built in Synology cloud sync and backup apps leave a lot to be desired, at least from my point of view.

Installing apps directly on to a Synology is a bad idea. Their support for Docker, combined with your image seems like the best deployment option.

It took a while but I finally had a chance to spin up a trial. The total package looks like a winner. I was able to spin up a container in about 1/2 hour on my non-prod Synology. Having experience with @jlesage 's other images, my learning curve was near zero. I started the trial and completed my first backup to Azure and performed a test restoration in the next 1/2 hour. I just kicked off a larger but still small test of 100,000 small files and a few multi-GB vhdx files. Assuming I am able to make reasonable internet bandwidth and Azure cost projections, it'll go on to the prod server.

I see this title on your original post: CloudBerry Lab are grateful and ready to collaborate. I also see 100,000 pulls on Docker Hub...pretty good channel...yes?

jlesage commented 5 years ago

Unfortunately, I've not been able to get answers to any of my questions... So communication with the company is not as easy as the original post suggest.

bigtfromaz commented 5 years ago

That's disappointing.
