Automatically backup your most critical business data across multiple locations and verify backup integrity, perfect for companies concerned about infrastructure attacks.

Workflow Steps

1

AWS S3

Primary backup storage

Set up automated daily backups of critical databases and files to AWS S3 with versioning enabled. Configure lifecycle policies to move older backups to cheaper Glacier storage.

2

Azure Blob Storage

Secondary backup location

Use Azure Data Factory or a sync tool to replicate your S3 backups to Azure Blob Storage in a different geographic region. This creates redundancy across cloud providers.

3

AWS Lambda

Verify backup integrity

Create a Lambda function that runs daily to verify backup file sizes, checksums, and accessibility. Test random file restoration to ensure backups are actually usable.

4

Zapier

Connect verification results

Use Zapier Webhooks to receive status updates from your Lambda function. Set up logic to trigger different actions based on success/failure status.

5

Email/Slack

Send status reports

Configure Zapier to send daily backup status reports via email to key stakeholders, and immediate Slack alerts if any backup fails or shows integrity issues.
