> You can technically have backblaze's unlimited backup option which costs around 7$ for a given machine although its more intended for windows, there have been people who make it work and Daily backups and it should work with gdpr (https://www.backblaze.com/company/policy/gdpr) with something like hetzner perhaps if you are worried about gdpr too much and OVH storage boxes (36 TB iirc for ~55$ is a good backup box) and you should try to follow 3-2-1 strategy.

Sure, but it doesn't solve the issue of "the datacenter is on fire" - neither if you're fully on prem or if you use colocation. You still need to acquire a new set of hardware, rack it, reconfigure the networking hardware and then restore from backups. That's an awful lot of work, and yes, I've been there.
