The system makes a backup to WORM storage (Write Once Read Many times) which is hosted by jtel in Azure (Geo Location: Germany West). The backup is created once a day at 02:00.

The backup is a content based backup which allows for re-creation of the same container stack on any suitable host.

...

  • The storage account cannot be deleted, even by global jtel admins for 180 days
  • The backups are immutable and therefore cannot be encrypted

For initial stack setup, a vanilla backup provided from the jtel WORM Storage is used. 

The backups from a running system are made nightly, automatically, by the acd-task-runner container.
