(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Web hosting provider UK2 Group (www.uk2group.com) announced on Tuesday that VPS.NET (http://vps.net) has signed an agreement to offer R1Soft Continuous Data Protection (www.r1soft.com) across its virtual private server cloud.
VPS.NET now offers customers a more advanced level of data protection with user-ready CDP backups and individual file-restoration capabilities.
Earlier this year UK2 launched VPS.NET, which offers a redundant cloud system designed to make it easier for companies to offer virtual private server cloud hosting.
VPS.NET offers an “instantly deployable” image that lets users to activate the Continuous Data Protection Server in 60 seconds, giving customers complete administrative control of scheduling and managing their backups, says the company.
The CDP software protects VPS.NET customers’ environments by performing asynchronous replication of the target servers and archiving only the deltas or changed blocks to disk.
Each replication makes a full backup within minutes, even on larger data sets.
This gives VPS.NET customers the ability to perform more granular restores of individual files or folders as opposed to restoring the entire VPS.
CDP can replicate other VPS.NET virtual machines and physical servers to recovery points stored on disk. It can also replicate and archive nodes inside the VPS.NET cloud and any Internet accessible Windows or Linux server.
VPS.NET customers will be able to use CDP recovery points to perform more granular restores of individual files or folders, instead of restoring the entire VPS.
“Our team has been working closely with R1Soft for months on this project and we are pleased to say that we can now offer our customers scalable VPS hosting with a trusted high-performance data protection offering that can be deployed within minutes,” says Ditlev Bredahl, CEO of UK2 Group.
The new offering also gives clients the flexibility to increase the storage space on their CDP Server in just minutes.
R1Soft Agent licenses will be offered to VPS.NET clients for $15 per month, with the R1Soft CDP MySQL Add-on available for an additional fee.
CDP for MySQL provides user-scheduled asynchronous replication of online MySQL databases and works with both MyISAM and InnoDB storage engines.
