Offsite Data Backup

Typical applications:  data redundancy, disaster avoidance, data backup, web hosting, business continuity,

Offsite backup (also known as Storage On Demand or Storage as a Service) is a data disaster recovery method of computer data backup & archiving involving the use of an offsite location as a means of securing data in the event of a disaster.  Having the proper backup services in place for you business is often even more important than always having your circuits up and running.  Using offsite vaulting and employing redundant data storage will minimize the cost during an unplanned outage.  Data archiving requires that your data exists in two places at one time, and it can only be done through a properly constructed Offsite Data Storage Plan.  Offsite data backup works by first encrypting the data, then compressing and transmitting it to an offsite data vault.  In the event of an emergency, this data can then be accessed via the Internet or a dedicated data restore line.

Many offsite backup services offer additional features, including:  account management, over-the-phone support, central management for multiple data locations, and both database & email backup.

There are a number of advantages to storing your data offsite, including:

• Your data is protected in the event of a disaster
• Backup operations can be performed automatically leaving more time for more productive tasks
• Supports cross-platform technology;  in other words, backup can be performed regardless of operating system
• Added security of data-encrypted network connections
