Dropbox is a well-known cloud file storage platform. In contrast to a web hosting service where you can have a site which is accessible online by inputting a domain, Dropbox enables you to store files, that you can access from their app using a personal computer or a smartphone. The files aren't executed, so an html file will be listed and not presented as an actual site. The service enables you to access your content from any location so long as you log in with the proper credentials. As the firm allows third-party providers to use their API, we have taken advantage of this service and we offer you the chance to produce regular automatic backups of the content you have on our end to a Dropbox account so long as you have sufficient space. This will incorporate one more level of protection for your websites simply because you shall always have a copy of any data that you could require and if the application is installed on your computer, a copy shall be available not only on their servers, but also within a folder on your end.
Dropbox Backups in Hosting
You can use the Dropbox backup function with all hosting services we offer and at no extra cost. Using the respective section inside the Hepsia CP, you could link a Dropbox account with a couple of clicks and the backups will start being produced there the same day. You could select the Internet sites and databases which will be copied there one by one, so if you have a lot of content on our end or a small disk quota with Dropbox, you'll be able to choose only the content that you really need. You'll be able to also select the number of backups that will be kept within your Dropbox account, ranging from 3 to 14, so you could have a daily copy of your information going 14 days back. Incorporating numerous accounts or deleting one which you no longer want to use is as effortless. The Dropbox backups can be used along with the daily backups that we keep of all your content just in case that you would like to have a copy on your personal computer through the Dropbox application.
Dropbox Backups in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you obtain one of our semi-dedicated servers, you could take full advantage of the Dropbox backup feature without difficulty simply because linking the two accounts takes only a few mouse clicks inside the Hepsia CP, which is used for the management of the semi-dedicated accounts. Depending on the total size of the content you have on our end, the space quota of your Dropbox account and the data that you would like to have, you can decide if your whole account will be backed up or just certain websites and databases. Furthermore, you could pick the number of daily backups that will be kept within your Dropbox account at one time. The amount ranges from three to fourteen and may be adjusted in either direction whenever you want. The Dropbox account could be removed from our system with only a click if you no longer need to use the service, although it comes very handy ifyou want to get a copy of your files automatically on your laptop or computer in addition to the full backups that we keep on a daily basis on our end.
