what's the better choice for enterprise backup solution
the dev team request me to deploy a backup server for digital contents.
what's the better solution do you think below?
- HDFS - pros: most of our dev/ops know it well, and the library for access it was mature. cons: java consumes a lot of memory that others.
- Webdav - I can setup apache mod_dav for it. pros: it's easy to manage. cons: no replications as automatically as HDFS.
- FTP - pros: it's pretty simple. cons: the security issue? also no auto replications.
- object storage such as min.io: pros: it's easy to use. cons: it's not that easy to maintain a solid distributed storage system.
How do you suggest the implementation? tks.

AWS S3, it's the most reliable solution you can find on the market with 6 copies of your data. For backup usage there is usually not much egress and storage cost is affordable.
i forgot to mention, backup should be deployed in internal.
I don't think those options matter that much.
Just pick any one of them (whatever you desire), put some RAIDs & make multiple copies across multiple servers. Boom.
By internal you mean on prem?
If you have to ask, keep it simple...it'll save your ass in the long run.
Personally I would just use 2 separate (cheap) cloud object storage, like wasabi + b2. If you can't do this due to on-prem requirement, just save to separate servers in 2 or 3 locations, each having raid 1.
Don't forget to test your restore.
From your option 1-4, and given your constraints, I would choose 1) because memory is pretty cheap these days.
NTFS. It just werks ™
Our preferred way its borg backup and its encrypted too.

On premises NAS ( Network Attached Storage ) .
