The Managed Proxmox Backup Server is your own backup storage, operated by us, based on Proxmox Backup Server (PBS). You get an isolated datastore with its own access user. We take care of hardware and updates.
How your backups get into the datastore
| Your data is stored … | Way |
|---|---|
| in a Cloud or Server product with us | Create a backup job and select your datastore as the Backup Target |
| on your own Proxmox VE | Add our datastore as a storage of type “Proxmox Backup Server” |
| on your own Proxmox Backup Server | Set up a sync job (pull or push) |
You can combine these ways.
