Hello,

I am looking for recommendations for a service provider of immutable backup that has options for a homelab user.

My research has led me to services with expensive options, or no pricing at all unless you ask for a quote.

Thank you

I use Backblaze B2, but stored in an encrypted Restic container, set up using this guide:

https://helgeklein.com/blog/restic-encrypted-offsite-backup-with-ransomware-protection-for-your-homeserver/

Restic has been great for automating backups, and even letting me mount the encrypted storage to grab individual files. I like doing it this way since I don’t have to trust Backblaze isn’t reading my data - I know for sure that they can’t.

Performance of storage that is both remote and encrypted is about what you would expect, but I don’t need access to the data unless something bad happens.

Thats a great link, it lists a lot of options and gives a good explanation on how to setup the author’s choices.
