Synology and Wasabi Hybrid Cloud Backup Integration Explained
Integration of Synology and Wasabi Cloud Backup for Hybrid Protection
In 2026, the speed at which data can be recovered, not where it is stored, will determine how well businesses protect their data. Today, businesses work on SaaS platforms, their own infrastructure, and in distributed work environments. To deal with this complexity, Synology and Wasabi have come up with a strategic integration that makes hybrid backup architectures easier to use while also making them more resistant to ransomware and better at keeping data for a long time.
The partnership lets Synology ActiveProtect backup systems and Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage work together without any problems. Companies can extend their backup policies directly to the cloud using a single management interface instead of setting up separate tools. This cuts down on administrative work and lowers the chances of configuration errors that can lead to failed recoveries.
Backups that work in all environments
Today’s businesses keep track of data on endpoints, virtual machines, servers, and SaaS platforms. The integration lets administrators protect all workloads from one platform and automatically make backup copies in the cloud, which is off-site.
The benefit is that things are clear. IT teams can now see the full protection status from one dashboard instead of having to use separate backup tools for cloud and local systems. Visibility makes it easier to prepare for audits and respond more quickly to outages or cyber incidents.
This centralized model fits with the operational goals of the business, especially for those that have to keep records for legal or contractual reasons.
Cloud protection that can’t be changed against ransomware
More and more, ransomware attacks are going after backup repositories instead of main data. Attackers know that if backups are lost, it is impossible to get the data back. The Synology and Wasabi integration fixes this problem by letting you make storage copies that can’t be changed.
During their retention period, immutable backups cannot be changed or deleted. Even administrators can’t change them until they expire. This keeps companies safe from malicious deletion, stolen credentials, and threats from inside the company.
Backing up with modern 3-2-1-1-0 frameworks
The partnership is based on modern ways to protect data. Businesses can keep several copies of data in different places and on different types of storage.
Local backups make it easy to get back up quickly. Cloud backups keep you safe from disasters. Immutable retention keeps data safe. Continuous verification makes it less likely that recovery will be uncertain.
These layers work together to create a strong backup system that can handle ransomware, accidental deletion, hardware failure, and site outages all at once.
Cloud Economics That You Can Count On
Cost uncertainty has been one of the biggest problems with using cloud backup. When you need to get your data back quickly, traditional storage providers charge you for retrieval and API requests, which makes it expensive.
Wasabi gets rid of these problems by offering predictable prices and no egress fees. Companies can get back big datasets without worrying about the cost. This makes it more likely that disaster recovery plans will be tested regularly, which makes recovery much more likely.
Hybrid Storage Optimization
Not all data needs to stay on expensive primary storage. The integration makes tiering more flexible by automatically moving older backups to the cloud while keeping newer backups accessible locally.
This method improves both performance and cost at the same time. Production environments stay fast, and you can still find and protect old data. IT teams don’t give too much local storage hardware while still following retention rules.
What it does in modern IT infrastructure
Organizations can be both faster and more resilient by using on-premises backup appliances and cloud immutability together. Local systems take care of operational restores, and cloud backups make sure that disaster recovery works.
This dual-layer architecture works for industries that need to follow rules, have workers in different places, and run operations across multiple sites. Companies can get their data back no matter what kind of problem it is, whether it’s technical, physical, or malicious.
