Dropbox is a well-known cloud file storage platform. Unlike a hosting service where you can have a website that is accessible online by inputting a domain address, Dropbox permits you to store files, which you can access through their application using a computer or a smartphone. The files aren't executed, so an html file will be listed and not presented as an actual Internet site. The service permits you to access your data from any location so long as you log in with the proper credentials. Since the company allows third-party service providers to use their API, we've taken advantage of this service and we present you with the chance to generate regular automatic backups of the information you have on our end to a Dropbox account provided that you have sufficient space. This shall add one more level of protection for your websites because you will always have a copy of any data that you could need and if the application is installed on your PC, a copy shall be available not just on their hosting servers, but also in a folder on your end.

Dropbox Backups in Dedicated Servers

All dedicated service that are set up with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with the Dropbox backup function by default, therefore if you need to employ this service, you just have to link the server to your account using the Dropbox section within Hepsia. The user-friendly interface will allow you to pick the websites which will be backed up in case that you do not require the whole content which you have on the server or you just don't have a lot of free space within your Dropbox account. You can also select how many copies of the everyday backups shall be saved, consequently if you pick the maximum number of fourteen, for instance, you shall have a copy of your files and databases for each and every day of the past fourteen days. Both options can be edited whenever you want in the event that you change your mind in regards to the content of the number of backups you need. You could also disconnect the Dropbox account with ease if you don't want to use it or if you would rather use the backup service that is a part of our Managed services upgrade along with other handy server management tasks that our system administrators can perform for you.
