The primary requirement of the project was to provide additional infrastructure for secure data storage and an additional location for Veeam backups, following best practices for backup storage. Another critical requirement was to enhance resilience against ransomware attacks.

A major challenge was the data transfer to AWS due to the large volume of data and the client’s limited internet bandwidth. However, the transfer itself was seamless. Importantly, using AWS DataSync, the data was automatically copied after specifying the source location (Windows CIFS share) and the destination (AWS S3).
