Dropbox Backups
Learn more about the Dropbox Backup service offered inside the Hepsia Control Panel and see how to use it.
Dropbox is a file storage platform, which has been gaining a lot in popularity lately as it allows you to access any content saved on its servers using any device provided their application is installed. The content is synchronized between all devices, so that you can access it anytime. Dropbox doesn't offer Internet hosting services, thus if you upload an html file it won't appear as a webpage and will not be executed. This service is used only for storing information and we've taken advantage of the fact that they offer an API to third-party companies to create a backup service on our end, which you can use if you host your Internet sites on our web servers. With this extra function you will not need toworry about your content due to the fact that you'll always have a copy of your sites on the Dropbox servers and on your computer system just in case that something happens - a script update failure, deleting files accidentally, etc.

Dropbox Backups in Semi-dedicated Servers
All
semi-dedicated server accounts set up on our sophisticated cloud hosting platform include the Dropbox backup feature by default, so you'll be able to link an account that you have with them with a couple of clicks. The tool which you will find inside the Hepsia hosting Control panel will allow you to choose different options - what Internet site files and databases will be backed up and what amount of copies must be kept in your Dropbox account. Thus you'll be able to have a copy only of specific content for up to 2 weeks back. These options can be altered without difficulty anytime and you may even use multiple Dropbox accounts or delete ones that you no longer want to use. You should just ensure that the total size of the backups does not exceed the disk space limit that you have on their end. Because the backed up content could be accessed in a conventional folder on your personal computer, this feature is a valuable addition to the daily backups which we'll create of your whole account at least four times each day.

Dropbox Backups in VPS Servers
You could use this function with all
VPS plans we offer as long as you opt for Hepsia for the hosting CP. Your Dropbox account can be linked to the server through the user-friendly interface Hepsia features and a copy of your information will be stored in your Dropbox account each and every day. The maximum number of copies which you can have at one time is 14, consequently if you do not have sufficient free space with Dropbox or you just have too much content on the VPS, you can either select a smaller number of copies or you could choose only certain sites to be backed up. The latter can be added or taken off from the backups at any time with ease. The Dropbox function will permit you to get a copy of your content right on your laptop or computer every day without doing anything by hand, but you may also consider the backup service which we offer with our Managed Services upgrade considering that you will get numerous other administration tasks with it too.

Dropbox Backups in Dedicated Servers
The Dropbox backups are available with all
Linux dedicated servers acquired with the Hepsia CP and you could link the two accounts with just several mouse clicks via a very user-friendly interface that will allow you to select the exact content that'll be backed up and the amount of copies which will be available inside your Dropbox account at one time. In this way you could take advantage of this service if you do not have enough space with Dropbox for the whole content on the server or you simply need just some of the data. Hepsia will enable you to specify the folders to be backed up and to select between 3 and fourteen daily copies to be kept, so you could have backups for up to fourteen days back. You'll be able to modify these options with a mouse click whenever you choose or you may remove the Dropbox account from the CP if you do not intend to use it anymore. As an alternative we offer in-house backups also, which you can get as a standalone service or as a component of the Managed Services package which includes a range of handy server administration tasks.
