# Copy files from Backblaze to DigitalOcean Spaces

In this demo we show how you can use Transloadit's API to copy files from Backblaze to DigitalOcean Spaces.

Once you set up the recipes, Transloadit can do this for you automatically.

Optionally you could also transform the files between the import from Backblaze and the export to DigitalOcean Spaces.

You can for example encode videos, optimize images, detect faces, and [much more](/services.md).

Step 1:

## So many ways to integrate

Transloadit is a service for companies with developers. And there are many ways developers can put Transloadit to good use inside your company to automate media processing.

#### Bulk imports

Add one of our [import Robots](/services/file-importing.md) to acquire and transcode massive media libraries.

#### Handling uploads

We are *the* experts at reliably [handling uploads](/services/handling-uploads.md). We wrote the [protocol⁠](https://tus.io/) for it.

#### Front-end integration

We integrate with web browsers via our next-gen file uploader [Uppy⁠](https://uppy.io/) and SDKs for Android and iOS.

#### Back-end integration

Send us batch jobs in any server language using one of our [SDKs](/docs/sdks.md) or directly interfacing with our [REST API](/docs/api.md).

#### Pingbacks

Configure a [notify\_url](/services/content-delivery.md) to let your server receive transcoding results JSON in the `transloadit` POST field.

#### On-demand

Use our [Smart CDN](/services/file-importing.md) to adapt files on-demand and stream them directly to your users.
