Dropbox is a well-known cloud file storage platform. Different from a hosting service where you can have an Internet site which is accessible online by typing a domain, Dropbox allows you to store files, which you can access via their application using a PC or a smartphone. The files are not executed, so an html file will be listed and not displayed as an actual web page. The service permits you to access your data from any location as long as you log in with the proper credentials. Because the firm allows third-party companies to use their API, we have taken advantage of this service and we give you the opportunity to create regular automatic backups of the info that you have on our end to a Dropbox account so long as you have enough space. This will add one more level of protection for your sites because you shall always have a copy of any info that you might need and if the application is installed on your computer, a copy shall be available not just on their web servers, but also inside a folder on your end.
Dropbox Backups in Shared Web Hosting
You'll be able to use the Dropbox backup feature with all shared web hosting plans we offer and at no extra cost. From the respective section within the Hepsia CP, you can link a Dropbox account with several clicks and the backups will start being created there the same day. You could choose the Internet sites and databases that shall be copied there separately, so if you have loads of content on our end or a small disk quota with Dropbox, you can select only the content that you really need. You'll be able to also pick the number of backups that will be kept within your Dropbox account, ranging from 3 to 14, so you can have a daily copy of your data going two weeks back. Adding several accounts or deleting one that you no longer want to use is just as simple. The Dropbox backups could be used along with the daily backups we keep of all your data just in case that you would like to have a copy on your personal computer through the Dropbox app.
Dropbox Backups in Semi-dedicated Servers
Linking a semi-dedicated server account to a Dropbox one is very simple and takes just several clicks, so if you host your sites on our cutting-edge cloud web hosting platform and you would like to have backups in addition to the ones which we create each day, you can set everything up in no time. This is done from the Dropbox section of the Hepsia CP and our system will enable you to pick what will be backed up - all of the content, only particular Internet site folders, only databases or a mixture of the two. You can have between three and fourteen daily backups at any given time based on the amount of free space you have inside the Dropbox account and how big the websites on our end are. You shall be able to change this number and to add or take away Internet sites at any time and the modifications will take effect the next time our system makes backups. Detaching a Dropbox account is also very easy, therefore if you no longer need to use this service, it will take you just a click to clear out your account from our system.
Dropbox Backups in VPS Servers
The Dropbox service is readily available for all Linux VPS plans which are purchased with the Hepsia hosting CP. You could easily link the two accounts and our system will start making copies of your information the same day. If you have enough space in your Dropbox account, you can have all the information copied there daily with a maximum of 14 copies. If the space is not sufficient or you do not need everything, you may either opt for a smaller number of copies to be kept in your Dropbox account at the same time or you can pick just certain Internet sites or databases to be backed up. With this feature you will be able to look through your content for up to two weeks back on your computer, which means more security for any data that you have on the VPS. The service can be disabled with a mouse click at any time if you no longer wish to use Dropbox for backups or if you use our backup feature, which is a part of the administration tasks included within the Managed Services upgrade.
Dropbox Backups in Dedicated Servers
All Linux dedicated web hosting plans which are set up with our Hepsia hosting CP include the Dropbox backup function by default, therefore if you would like to employ this service, you only have to link the server to your account via the Dropbox section inside Hepsia. The user-friendly interface will allow you to pick the sites that will be backed up in case that you don't require the entire content you have on the server or you simply do not have much free space inside your Dropbox account. You could also pick how many copies of the day-to-day backups will be kept, so if you opt for the maximum number of 14, for instance, you shall have a copy of your files and databases for each and every day of the past 14 days. Both options can be edited whenever you want if you change your mind regarding the content of the number of backups that you need. You can also disconnect the Dropbox account with ease if you don't want to use it or if you want to use the backup service that is a part of our Managed services upgrade along with other handy server management tasks that our system administrators can perform for you.
