Glacier client?

Is there a plan to add Glacier as a backup storage option in the near future?

Thanks, Bill

There is an old issue for it on Github: https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati/issues/701

It seems to have been tough to implement because of the way Glacier has a restore delay for an archive before it can be downloaded. With backend verification and compacting this means it has to be done every backup run causing significant latency for the run.

There is an old article about using Amazon’s transparent S3-to-Glacier filters to move just the dblocks into the Glacier storage and turning off auto-compacting and backend verification, though. I think it may still be applicable if you really want to: How to use Glacier to store backups - Duplicati

Team, if you use Swift Object Storage on prem, you can use cloud sync to glacier and set up an archive to glacier. www.swiftstack.com This would automate the process.
