Microsoft and Google don't fully back up your data — they protect their infrastructure. Datapath uses AFI (Afi.ai) to give you true point-in-time, granular backup and recovery for every M365 and Google Workspace tenant.
Managed by Datapath — Cloud-to-Cloud Backup
Why AFI + Datapath
Both Microsoft and Google operate under a shared-responsibility model: they keep the platform running; you keep your data recoverable. AFI fills that gap with automated backups, point-in-time recovery, and granular restore down to a single email or file.
Datapath operates AFI for clients across healthcare, K-12, and financial services — including the recovery drills, audit reporting, and immediate restores when ransomware or accidental deletion strikes.
Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams, and Groups — all backed up multiple times per day.
Gmail, Drive, Shared Drives, Calendar, and Contacts protected with cross-account recovery.
Recover a single email, file, or entire mailbox to any prior point — in minutes.
Anomaly detection on backup activity flags mass deletion or encryption events early.
Backups stored independently of the source tenant with strong encryption and retention policies.
Datapath provides backup success, retention, and restore evidence to satisfy auditors.
AFI deployments managed by Datapath support:
Microsoft replicates data for service availability and offers limited retention for accidental deletion, but they don't provide long-term backup or full restore from ransomware. AFI does.
Single items restore in seconds. Full mailbox or large SharePoint site restores typically complete within hours, depending on size — Datapath manages the operation end-to-end.
AFI uses independent cloud storage (AWS, Azure, or GCP regions of your choosing) with encryption at rest and in transit. Datapath helps select the region that fits your data residency requirements.
Datapath manages AFI backup for M365 and Google Workspace — including the recovery drills that prove it works.
