Best way to retrieve Google Drive backup

Howdy! We use Google Drive as the destination for our nightly, weekly and monthly backups. Is there a way to retrieve/transfer the backups back to the server from Google drive without first downloading to a local computer and then reuploading to the server? Downloading and uploading is substantially slower than server to server. When an account restoration is required, time is often of the essence, and large accounts can be extremely cumbersome to restore in such a manner. Thanks!

  Hey there! There isn't a way to do this as pulling them down to the local system is still the best way to handle that:

  there is no direct commands available for this. if you are a developer then go to google console and get gdrive api. With this api you can develop a script and use it.
