Online Backup is a professional, cost-efficient and innovative service that has been developed for companies with high security requirements. The Arcplace Backup Software, that is part of the service, is installed on one customer system at each site. If desired, an appliance designed for this purpose can also be used. The Arcplace Backup Software stores the data to be backed up locally before replicating it via an encrypted connection in highly secure data centres.
The Online Backup Service was developed with the following aims:
- to significantly reduce backup and restore times
- to replace offline storage media such as tapes
- to make backups available online at all times
- to keep a copy of the backups externally for disaster recovery
