Dropmysite Provided by Biglobe

Dropmysite Pte Ltd, a website, email and mobile backup service, announced a partnership with Biglobe, Inc., one of Japan’s largest Internet service providers, to provide its Dropmysite website backup and recovery service to Biglobe’s cloud hosting customers.

Through this partnership, Biglobe customers will be able to backup and recover their website and email data from the cloud on demand following unplanned outages or other disruptions of service.

As more websites fall victim to hacking, computer viruses and accidental corruption of data, there is increasing demand from businesses and individual website owners for automatic backup of and easy restoration of web pages, critical files and databases. Backup and recovery are especially challenging for SMBs, which often lack the technological expertise to configure and manage their own backup servers.

Dropmysite began offering cloud backup and recovery services in 2011 as a response to these challenges, and as it has with dozens of other ISPs and cloud hosting providers, will provide a white-label version of its services to Biglobe. Dropmysite offers a simple user interface, low cost and flexible backup storage, using AE- 256 encryption.

“By adding Dropmysite to our cloud hosting service, our customers can easily access the cloud backup service without having to set up or configure any new hardware. We are always looking to offer new value-added: self-service features to our customers, and we are confident that they will appreciate both the convenience and flexibility of the Dropmysite solution,” said Mako Kondo, deputy GM, business division, Biglobe.

BIglobe cloud hosting providers can purchase Dropmysite from BIglobe’s cloud App Store and set up and start backing up their data from the Dropmysite user management screen. Users can also download and restore their backed up data at any time.

Dropmysite’s standard backup service features include:
