Backup a 10TB SharePoint Farm Recommedations

Hello,

I would like to backup a SharePoint Farm that will have about 7TB in content databases and 3TB in indexes. We have SQL Server Always On. We will do SQL Server backups.

What is is recommended?

Thank you. SN

At that scale, SQL backups are your only option. Are you asking about how to perform those SQL backups, or something else?

Thank you Trevor. Will definitely do SQL backups now.

How about what isn't backed up by the SQL backups, like web applications and site collection configuration and service applications configuration such as search?

Do you use 3rd party software or Powershell to backup what isn't in the SQL backups? Would like to be able to backup everything, but have a tight budget.

Your best bet is to script your farm build out. This way you get to a point where all you need is those SQL backups.
