Why would you bother with cloud backup which is probably somewhat slow
when you already appear to have a good tape backup strategy ?

Seems to me you would be better served making sure you have the latest
backup software and current high-speed tape drive.

Just my two cents :-)

And our tape backups are quite solid, including taking off-site,
so this is meant more for auxiliary than anything else -- minor
restores will likely be few and far between, since we could use the
tape and simply do not do a lot of restores.
