Importance Of Remote Backup Services

As an Indian, its in our mentality that we shall cross the bridge when it comes

. There is very little that we do when it comes to disaster management. Its always well handle it later attitude and it is this attitude that most often gets us into trouble. There is no precaution is better than cure sensibility.

This mentality is echoed even in our businesses. We keep on storing data at unprotected places not being mindful of the fact that the data can get lost, the files can get corrupted and the hard drives can crash.

My friends and I also learnt it the hard way around. We had buyers coming in from the US and we guys had made a presentation and we had tried to make copies on every format so that nothing goes wrong at the last minute. But it did. The CD broke before the meeting, the hard drive got a virus and crashed and the stupid company server also wasnt responding at the time of the meeting. There was no way of retrieving the information and making a presentation. We lost the buyer but learnt a lesson that day. The very next day we searched online and learnt about remote back up services.

We understood how backup solutions safe guard the site content. Many hosts with virtually private or dedicated servers have a single point of failure: their hard drive. Hence we learnt that we can automate our site backup using cron which will be safely available on the server 24x7. It was simple and we didnt need technical knowledge to avail this option. With our data at an off-site storage facility we had the option of accessing it our convenience and we were peaceful as the data was secure.

Offsite backup companies store the data in state of the art safes, to protect them against fire, flood, and even prying eyes. We searched online and got in touch with copy india.com people. They guided us about remote backup services and the ease with which it could be done. We were explained that File Transfer Protocol or FTP is the most common way of storing files/data as it is compatible with all sorts of operating systems. Hosting provider's servers access backup server and upload the site content in a easy to download file. We were told even we could upload the content of our site using FTP or SSH technology on their servers.

Copy India is a secure and cost efficient answer for many small to mid-sized businesses that do not have sufficient staff, time or awareness necessary to suitably execute their own day-to-day backups. Copy India is mainly used for backing up vital data to an offsite computer reducing the probability of losing the data.
