The speed significantly depends on the total volume of backup copies and the width of the data transmission channels on the side of the provider and the client. An average virtual machine/server of 200 GB with a width of 1 GB is backed up/restored in about 1 hour (full backup). The speed may be lower because of high load on server resources (CPU, disk drives, network resources) on the client’s side, as well as because of the geographical location where backups are stored: restoring in Germany will be faster compared to a situation if the client’s IT infrastructure were deployed in another country.
