The following diagram illustrates how data flows during backup in a TurboTier deployment.
Step 1
Hybrid Workloads agent backs up the server data according to the schedule defined in the backup policy. At the scheduled time, Druva Cloud initiates the backup request and forwards it to Hybrid Workloads agent.📝Note
TurboTier maintains a persistent connection with Druva Cloud.Step 2
Hybrid Workloads agent backs up the data to TurboTier.
Hybrid Workloads agent saves the metadata to the storage that Druva Cloud assigns for backup.
Step 3
As per the predefined schedule, TurboTier synchronizes the backup data to the storage that Druva Cloud assigns.
📝Notes:
TurboTier establishes an on-demand connection with cloud storage. After a synchronization is complete, the connection with Druva Cloud storage is terminated. For the next synchronization operation, TurboTier establishes a connection with the cloud storage that Druva Cloud assigns.
Administrators must configure the synchronization schedule and a bandwidth that TurboTier can consume. For more information, see Configure TurboTier.
