Server Backup Technology

Most backup providers protect their data using only single parity RAID5.

We use Dual Parity RAID-6.

We maintain the latest version of the following protocols:

	FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
	SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol)
	SSH (Secure Shell)
	SCP (Secure Copy) – uses SSH for encrypted file transfer
	RSYNC V3 – synchronizes only changed files. On an average hosting server, it saves up to 98% of bandwidth on a daily basis, as generally only 2% of files are changed or modified
	Samba – mount your backup space as if it were a 2nd hard drive
	rdiff-backup – uses rsync and stores old files in a special subfolder
	duplicity – produces encrypted tar-format volumes and records only the parts of files that have changed
	rsnapshot – rsnapshot uses rsync and hard links to keep multiple, full backups while using only a little over the amount of space of one full backup
	WebDAV – collaboratively edit and manage files on remote web servers.
