Dropbox is a well known cloud file storage platform. Different from a web hosting service where you can have a site that is accessible online by typing a domain, Dropbox permits you to store files, which you can access through their app using a computer or a smart phone. The files are not executed, so an html file will be listed and not displayed as an actual webpage. The service permits you to access your content from any location provided that you log in with the correct credentials. Because the company allows third-party providers to use their API, we've taken advantage of this service and we provide you with the opportunity to produce regular automatic backups of the information you have on our end to a Dropbox account provided you have sufficient space. This shall add one more level of security for your websites simply because you shall always have a copy of any info that you could need and if the application is installed on your computer system, a copy will be available not only on their hosting servers, but also in a folder on your end.

Dropbox Backups in Cloud Hosting

You can use the Dropbox backup function with all cloud hosting services we offer and at no extra cost. Through the respective section within the Hepsia CP, you could link a Dropbox account with a few mouse clicks and the backups will start being generated there the same day. You could choose the Internet sites and databases which will be copied there separately, so if you have loads of content on our end or a small disk quota with Dropbox, you'll be able to pick just the content you actually need. You'll be able to also select the number of backups which will be kept within your Dropbox account, ranging from three to 14, so you'll be able to have a daily copy of your content going two weeks back. Incorporating a number of accounts or deleting one which you no longer want to use is equally effortless. The Dropbox backups may be used in addition to the daily backups we keep of all your content in case that you would like to have a copy on your PC via the Dropbox app.

Dropbox Backups in Semi-dedicated Servers

Linking a semi-dedicated server account to a Dropbox one is very simple and takes no more than a couple of mouse clicks, so if you host your sites on our cutting-edge cloud Internet hosting platform and you want to have backups in addition to the ones that we make every day, you can set everything up in no time. This is done via the Dropbox section of the Hepsia Control Panel and our system will allow you to pick what shall be backed up - all of the data, only specific Internet site folders, just databases or a combination of the two. You'll be able to have between 3 and 14 daily backups at a time dependant upon how much free space you have within the Dropbox account and how big the Internet sites on our end are. You'll be able to change this number and to add or take away Internet sites at any time and the changes will take effect the next time our system makes backups. Detaching a Dropbox account is also very simple, so if you no longer want to use this service, it'll take you simply a mouse click to remove your account from our system.

Dropbox Backups in VPS Servers

The Dropbox service is accessible for all VPS servers that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You can easily link the two accounts and our system shall start creating copies of your data the same day. If you have enough space inside your Dropbox account, you can have all of the information copied there each and every day with a maximum of 14 copies. If the space is not adequate or you do not need everything, you could either pick a smaller number of copies to be kept inside your Dropbox account at one time or you can choose just certain websites or databases to be backed up. With this function you will be able to surf your content material for up to 2 weeks back on your computer, which means more protection for any information that you have on the Virtual private server. The service can be disabled with a click at any time if you no longer want to use Dropbox for backups or if you use our backup feature, which is a part of the administration tasks included inside the Managed Services upgrade.

Dropbox Backups in Dedicated Servers

All Linux dedicated servers that are set up with our Hepsia hosting CP include the Dropbox backup feature by default, therefore if you need to use this service, you just have to link the server to your account using the Dropbox section within Hepsia. The user-friendly interface will allow you to select the websites which will be backed up in case that you don't require the entire content which you have on the server or you simply do not have plenty of free space in your Dropbox account. You'll be able to also select how many copies of the daily backups shall be stored, thus if you pick the maximum number of fourteen, for example, you'll have a copy of your files and databases for each day of the past fourteen days. Both options could be edited whenever you want in case you change your mind in regards to the content of the number of backups that you need. You can also disconnect the Dropbox account easily if you do not want to use it or if you prefer to use the backup service which is a part of our Managed services upgrade along with other beneficial server management tasks which our system admins can perform for you.
