4 Introduction This technical paper provides information on how to deploy StarWind Storage Gateway for Backblaze and connect it to Windows and macos hosts. StarWind Storage Gateway for Backblaze uses a Virtual Tape Library interface to connect to the existing IT infrastructure. The client OS recognizes the gateway as an industry-standard LTO Tape Library. Virtual Tape is replicated and stored as an image file in Backblaze B2 storage. This way any backup, media asset management, or workflow application can work with a cloud storage, omitting the technical limitations of the cloud storage. This guide is intended for experienced StarWind users, system administrators, and IT professionals who would like to configure StarWind Storage Gateway for Backblaze. It provides a step-by-step guidance on how to configure the Gateway and connect it to client systems using iscsi. A full set of up-to-date technical documentation can always be found here, or by pressing the Help button in the StarWind Management Console. For any technical inquiries, please, visit our online community, Frequently Asked Questions page, or use the support form to contact our technical support department. TECHNICAL PAPER 4
