Many customers ask us what hosting off-site can do for their business. The quick response is a lot. But let's take a look at what hosting actually is and discuss the positive things it can do for effectively backing up your business.
What is Off-Site Hosting?
Hosting can refer to a multitude of set-ups and configurations. In it's most basic form, hosting is the back-up of your company's data directly to a sever that is housed in a separate location other than your building. Often times it is a warehouse configuration that houses numerous servers and is climate controlled to ensure safe storage. You can automatically backup your data on an immediate, daily or weekly basis, depending upon your company's needs.
How Does Off-Site Hosting Work?
In the past, backing up data to metallic tape was the standard for keeping your data safe and secure. Today, we rely on encrypting the data, compressing it and then sending that information to an off-site secure data storage center. Once stored at the data center, you can easily access it via the Internet or another secure data resource line. In the event of emergency, hosting can be a lifesaver.
Additionally, you can even have an entire dedicated server at a remote location that you can interact with in real-time. This allows for all of the server space requirements needed for your company's operations, data communications/email, hosting of your company's website and other business practices requiring server space to be contained in one secure space. This also allows your business to free up physical space within your office as all the server equipment is stored, maintained, updated and serviced by IT professionals off-site.
Advantages of Off-Site Hosting
- No initial hardware or software costs
- Immediate support for hardware problems
- Eliminates hardware and software obsolescence
- Peace of mind that comes from a secure, environmentally controlled environment
- Fast data recovery should you experience a computer emergency
