Dropbox is a well known cloud file storage platform. Different from a hosting service where you can have a site that's accessible online by typing a domain address, Dropbox permits you to store files, which you can access via their application using a computer or a smart phone. The files aren't executed, so an html file will be listed and not displayed as an actual Internet page. The service enables you to access your data from any location as long as you log in with the right credentials. Because the company allows third-party providers to use their API, we've taken advantage of this service and we offer you the chance to generate regular automatic backups of the content that you have on our end to a Dropbox account provided you've got sufficient space. This will incorporate one more level of security for your websites since you shall always have a copy of any data that you might require and if the application is installed on your computer, a copy shall be available not only on their web servers, but also within a folder on your end.
Dropbox Backups in Cloud Hosting
You can use the Dropbox backup feature with all cloud hosting services that we offer and at no extra charge. Through the respective section within the Hepsia CP, you are able to link a Dropbox account with a couple of mouse clicks and the backups will start being produced there the same day. You could select the Internet sites and databases which shall be copied there independently, so if you have a lot of content on our end or a small disk quota with Dropbox, you could select only the content that you truly need. You could also choose the number of backups which will be kept within your Dropbox account, ranging from three to fourteen, so you'll be able to have a daily copy of your data going 14 days back. Adding several accounts or deleting one that you no longer want to use is equally easy. The Dropbox backups may be used along with the daily backups we keep of all your data just in case that you would like to have a copy on your PC via the Dropbox app.
