Can we use azure blob storage for scylladb backups?

Question

As per the scylladb doc scylla-manager is the tool we should use to take our backups. But as per the latest version of scylla-manager (ie 2.2) it only seems to support AWS S3 and Google Cloud Storage Bucket. Is there some way to use scylla-manager to upload our backups to Azure Blobstorage ? or any other way which is at least equally efficient as scylla-manager to upload backups to Azure Blobstorage ?

Answer 1

Azure Blobstorage is not yet integrated into Scylla Manager. While it is in the near-term roadmap, we do not yet have it associated with a particular release or date.

Answer 2

We just coded and merged it, it's under tests now. Will be part of manager 2.3

Answer 3

Azure Blobstorage is now supported as a backup location using Scylla Manager 2.4, which was released last week.

• Release notes
• Setting up AzureBlobStorage as your backup location
• Scylla Manager 2.4 also provides an ansible playbook to automate the restore from backup

Note: Scylla Manager metrics undergo some refactoring, hence you will need Scylla Monitoring 3.8 (docs / Repo tag) in order to view the Manager metrics in the Manager dashboard in Scylla Monitoring.
