Cloudlab's IaaS includes a comprehensive backup and long-term data archival service. Our round-the-clock team will quickly and simply restore your data. Cloudlab's Backup-as-a-Service offers customisation of your data back-up frequency, retention and archiving.
Cloudlab BaaS is a fully air gapped solution, especially when combined with tape media. In the event malware encrypts your files - such as crypto-ransomware - your data remains protected.
IT Lab’s Trusted Backup and Archival Strategy is Your strategy
We apply our own recommendations for backup and archival, which include technology, scheduling and retention.
Cloudlab's BaaS delivers rapid backup and restoration of your files and services on Cloudlab, including (as applicable) all physical and virtual servers and storage devices.
As a Cloudlab client, you'll benefit from mandatory snapshot backup and replication. For an additional fee, you also have the option of long-term archival of snapshots to backup to disk (B2D) and/or tapes, which in turn can go to an offsite storage partner.
