ZFS snapshots to the AWS/GCP/Azure

CloudxtnyHostCloudxtnyHost Member, Host Rep

So I have an FreeNAS server and I want to periodically backup the vols to cloud storage. Does anyone know of any good solution for this? I thought I could just transfer the snapshots to the cloud, but from what I understand, I will be copying just the changes so I am not sure how recovery will work.

    Thanks, but this looks like it does file level copy. That great but I think i will need block level copy as I want to sync a whole volume or snapshot if there is away to do a full restore.

    Make snapshot locally and dump it to a third party.

    That's a very interesting idea. Thanks
