I have been dabbling in the offsite tape storage game for a few
months...and I have been increasingly interested in the online data
backup scenario.
One of the questions i would like to throw at this forum is......Why
are Web hosters NOT really promoting any data hosting solutions AS
there is some technical viability in this?
If a company does manage to organise an online backup procedure -
what is the upload cost AND what suitable programs are out there
that
can really compress the data in such a way as to allow a more
affordable transfer of data???
AND
What do you do about getting a snapshot of your server in the first
place so that you can do a server rebuild in the even of a
disaster....?....AND where do you keep a copy of this snapshot....On
a
USB on the IT managers keychain???
Any thoughts...cheers
