MAy 24, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Disk-based backup solution developer R1Soft (r1soft.com) announced on Wednesday that it has released an API add-on for its line of backup restore and disaster recovery products.
Level 1 PCI DSS Certified Service Provider! DataPipe delivers the best network & support; top tier data centers; New York metro, Silicon Valley, London, Hong Kong, Shanghai. DataPipe - Personal Touch, Global Reach.
Under development for the past year, the add-on, which can be used with all R1Soft products, is based on XML-RPC standards and is supported by most major programming languages, including Perl, Java, PHP, C/C++ and Python, says the company.
Developers can use the API to create automated processes, such as automatic billing and provisioning of data protection services for dedicated or shared hosting. It also provides the management of quotas, users and hosts in any hosting environment and enables developers to integrate R1Soft products into existing billing and provisioning applications or interfaces.
"Our API vastly increases the scalability and flexibility of our software. Developers can now easily capitalize on the enormous built-in data protection feature set that is available in all of our products," says David Wartell, R1Soft founder and CEO. "The API is completely documented and we even provide easy to follow and fully functional example programs written in Perl that use the API."
R1Soft was also recently selected by JaguarPC to provide continuous data protection for all its Windows and Linux servers.
