Until my last information, Locaweb <https://www.locaweb.com.br/default> is the largest Latin America Hosting company with more than 1.5PB of data backed up with Bacula. I estimate (for less) they have at least 4,000 backup clients. > Thanks in advance for your comments, if any. For this size of workload, you might consider data reducing features such as global deduplication, and automation ones such as application specific plugins. Unfortunately, these are only available today on Bacula Enterprise <https://www.baculasystems.com>, but licensing costs would be compensated with significant storage and staff economy.
