There's no IT, and it's a very small company. The Odoo mirroring is mainly a bonus, not a requirement, and the hosting and support is provided by Odoo. The current provider is just really bad, they can't even tell us how and where our stuff is backed up.. So at some point there will be a new IT provider, this is more to make an easier transition, if our files are stored locally already migration should be easier for whoever takes over and to get a better nvr than what dahua provided. So not really looking to move all those things in-house, more to the point of looking for good solutions providers for all the functions, like external backups and whatnot. The current it company has us locked into their magic cloud which they basically don't understand themselves.
So definitely looking for something pre-made like Synology or qnap, I'm just not very up to date on the ecosystem.
As a nerd I'd love to run proxmox but I also don't want it to be my headache, so I'm looking for more finished solutions that have good support. I won't be here in 6 months and I want something that will run on its own with minimal interference. And when issues do arise, something standard enough that any it consultant can pick it up and provide help.
Nas options for an office environment
Hi everyone! I'm looking to help my workplace get away from their crap it solutions provider and make them more independent. The business is moving over to hosted Odoo instead of the DIY solution it currently has hosted through the it provider. In that were thinking to put a local Nas, capable of running containers for a local mirror of Odoo in case of network outages, as well as an NVR for the IP cameras, and to host files (with external backup) locally. I did my research on available Nas options a few years ago but that's already outdated so I would love to hear what you folks are running at home and at work. The network is powered by a Ubiquiti Dream machine SE, but the cameras are dahua, hence why it doesn't do nvr. Priority is ease of use, containerization and four disk bays. In Western Australia, so not everything is available either.. Thankful for any help, cheers!
