eApps Hosting Launching Enterprise Backup Service

eApps Hosting announced the availability of a backup service, called Enterprise Backup Service, for users of the company’s VM in the cloud hosting service.

Customers can now manage backups of their Linux or Windows VMs using the power of Server Backup Manager, an enterprise backup software, by Idera, Inc.

From their eApps Hosting Portal, customers can enable the Enterprise Backup Service, then access a private instance of Idera’s web based administrative interface to schedule and administer backups of their VMs. This approach allows eApps’ customers to have control of their backups using the functionality of the Idera backup software, and also take advantage of future improvements by Idera as soon as they are available. All backups are stored within the eApps network.

Features of the Enterprise Backup Service:

• Block level backups – backups are performed at the block level, rather than file level, to shorten backup time and reduce I/O
• Frequent backups – the efficiency of processing allows backups to be scheduled down to intervals of just a few minutes, minimizing the risk of data loss
• Encryption – backups can be encrypted for maximum security
• MySQL backup integrity – optional plug-in available at no extra cost ensures that MySQL backups have a clean cut-off
• Data restoration – users can restore files, directories, and an entire VM

The service is designed for customers seeking a commercial grade backup solution. It provides customers control over all aspects of creating and managing backups of their eApps hosted VMs. The service has a set of enterprise features, is easy to use and efficient. The service is priced favorably, with usage fees starting at less than $15 per month for an account. A free 30 day trial is offered to all eApps customers.

The eApps Enterprise Backup Service is available to all customers of the eApps VM in the cloud service, a hosting service that allows precise selection and adjustment of RAM, CPU, disk and other computing resources using the Create-A-Cloud tool. The Linux or Windows VM is provisioned in minutes. eApps services are backed by an in-house 24/7 technical support team available by phone, Skype, chat, and email.
