Feature Request: Backblaze B2 As Backup Target

[technotame]

I'd like to request Backblaze B2 as a an option for backups. It's API is not S3 compatible unfortunately, but it is a cheaper option than S3.

Thanks.

This is in our todo list.

Would love to see this.

Backblaze just announced an S3 compatible API for B2. Obviously users can set this up manually but hopefully this makes it faster to include a native integration as well!

@moonmeister Yup, incredible announcement. They also lacked server side copies (which Cloudron requires)! I will be testing it out.

FWIW, you can probably already test this out with "S3 Compatible Provider" in the backups drop-down. If anyone manages to test it out, please let us know here.

Running a full backup test now, will report back results but I'm very excited!

Backup is still running, uploaded >77GB in 7 hours. Would highly recommend TAR backup format since with rsync it blows through the limited Class C Transactions with the Remote Copy and individual file uploads which would end up being pretty costly.
