The backup software: Veeam Backup and Replication supports S3 Object-lock from V10(Announced to be GA on 18. Feb.2020.) With this feature we would be able to "retire" tape backup in certain scenarios. Upstream PR. https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/26538 https://github.com/ceph/ceph/commit/385db6ea263b3259b8f1e4d4bace17becdba4bd0 Use case: Primary backup with VBR to RHEL server with mapped RBD image. Archive backup is moved from Primary backup server to S3 with object-lock, within the Veeam Scale-out-Backup-Repository technology.
