(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — TurnKey Internet (www.turnkeyinternet.net) will now offer its dedicated server clients R1Soft’s (www.r1soft.com) high-performance Continuous Data Protection as a fully-managed, offsite backup service that provides simple, seamless bare-metal restores.
According to its Tuesday announcement, R1Soft’s CDP software will let TurnKey Internet customers protect their clients’ Linux and Windows servers, and MySQL databases with advanced disk to disk backup technology.
By creating block-level backups and storing unique disk blocks across all recovery points only once, R1Soft CDP increases storage efficiency and reduces server resource usage. After completing an initial replica of data, CDP can complete virtual full backups in just minutes allowing more frequent backups and a superior level of data protection without affecting server performance.
“When it came to choosing backup software, R1Soft was the most complete solution available combining control panel integration, recognized reliability, and a powerful Bare-Metal Restore feature,” TurnKey Internet president and chief executive officer Adam Wills said in a statement. “This simplified data recovery method is essential to minimizing downtime, maintaining a competitive advantage, and instilling confidence in our customers.”
Available to dedicated server clients for $19.99 per month, R1Soft CDP offers TurnKey Internet customers Bare-Metal Restore, enabling them to quickly restore an entire server to a previous state directly from any point-in-time backup, skipping the O/S re-installation step and reducing the traditional 10-step server restore process to just four steps.
R1Soft’s partnership with TurnKey Internet is one of dozens of hosting partnerships over the years to provide customers with CDP technology. In November 2010, virtual private server provider VPS.NET (www.vps.net) signed a notable agreement with R1Soft to offer CDP across its virtual private server cloud, providing customers a more advanced level of data protection.
