Our off-site backup service offers a secure, simple, piece of mind solution to backing up your data whether you
are a home worker or running a business.
It has never been a more important time to protect your data, with more and more threats from
viruses and other security threats, having a secure backup in place will protect you from simple file loss,
problems booting up your PC, to a complete system crash.
An off-site backup is a secure, simple and affordable way for you to choose the data what you want to backup.
Benefits:
- Transparent: backups happen in the background while you work and you can
schedule when they happen
- Fast: An average daily backup is quick – only minutes rather than hours
- Easy: backup from any internet connection
- Convenient: backup and restore your data when you need to
- Reliable: no more data loss – your data is safe and available all of the
time and is easily recoverable
- Cost Effective: no more tapes, no more backup software, no more technology refreshes
- Hassle Free: roll your data back to any point in time – you can store many
different versions of your data!
- Secure: your data is secure and encrypted to the highest level possible -
128bit DES3 - and replicated between 2 data centres for complete peace of mind
- No Capital Outlay: a convenient monthly charge based on the amount of data
you want to backup
Our service is an automated on-line network-based data backup and recovery
solution. Key solution concepts are outlined below.
- Automated - Backups can be scheduled to run unattended at a
particular time or frequency.
- Secure - Data is encrypted before
leaving the device and remains so until recovered. SSL is used for network
encryption and 448 bit Blowfish for storage.
- Networked - Data is
transferred via any TCP-IP-enabled network connection. This removes the cost and
effort of daily physical data shipment.
- On-line - A full copy of
the most recent data is kept available for immediate recovery, eliminating the
response times associated with near-line and off-line
systems.
- Disk-to-disk - Backups are held on disk for designated
periods, enabling faster recovery, before being archived to tape for long term
storage. Writing to disk also improves backup speed and data integrity
verification.
- Incremental - Only files that have been modified or
added since the last backup will be identified for backup by the
system.
- Sub-file - Changes to a file are extracted at the binary
level. For example if a Word document is edited only the changed bytes of that
document will be extracted and sent through to the backup
server.
- Progressive - The backup server is able to update files
using the daily incrementals. This means every recovery is a full, updated
file.
The two primary advantages are a reduction in the size of the backup, thereby
reducing data transfer and storage requirements, and speed of recovery, a direct
result of the ability to perform full point in time restores from disk. This
makes the solution well suited to data backups and recovery in distributed or
networked environments while automation with remote management removes the
effort associated with manual and tape based solutions.
- Solution Architecture - The Centrastor service is a client – server
solution. It is necessary to install an agent onto the computer to be backed up
and this then transfers the data across a network to a remote Centrastor
platform at a Centrapop. A Backup Console is then used by a remote administrator
to manage the system.
- Client Overhead - Being a client – server solution with software
agents installed on the computers to be backed up, there are certain
implications surrounding client device requirements in order for the solution to
perform optimally. These fall into three categories and must be assessed in
determining the applicability of the service namely Processor, Disk Space and
Network.
Our affordable basic off-site support package makes it easy to build the service to your requirements.

Why backup
