Enterprise Backup & Recovery
Protect critical servers, applications and business data with backup and recovery architecture designed around your infrastructure, retention requirements, recovery objectives and operational priorities.
Protect Data Before You Need It Back
Backup creates recoverable copies of important data and systems, while recovery is the process of restoring those copies when production data is lost, corrupted or unavailable.
A complete backup strategy considers frequency, retention, storage location, recovery priorities and how quickly systems need to be restored.
Backup
Create copies of critical data and infrastructure.
Retain
Maintain restore points according to business requirements.
Verify
Validate backup availability and recovery readiness.
Recover
Restore required data or systems when needed.
Data Protection for Different Infrastructure Layers
Server Backup
Protect dedicated servers and supported virtual infrastructure.
File & Data Backup
Protect critical files, directories and business data.
Database Backup
Design backup workflows for supported database environments.
Virtual Machine Backup
Protect supported virtual machines and workloads.
Offsite Backup
Maintain secondary backup copies away from primary production storage.
Custom Backup Architecture
Design backup around workload size, retention, recovery and infrastructure needs.
Build Backup Around Business Risk
Backup architecture should reflect how often data changes, how much data loss is acceptable and how quickly the business needs to recover.
Backup Frequency
Choose appropriate backup intervals for each workload.
Retention Policy
Define how long backup versions should be retained.
Backup Location
Separate backup data from primary production storage where appropriate.
Recovery Priority
Identify which systems must be restored first.
Capacity Planning
Plan backup storage around data growth and retention.
Recovery Testing
Include periodic recovery validation in your operational process.
Define How Much Data and Time Your Business Can Afford to Lose
Recovery Point Objective
RPO represents the amount of recent data your organisation can tolerate losing. Lower RPO requirements generally require more frequent backups or replication.
Recovery Time Objective
RTO represents how quickly a system should be restored after an incident. Recovery architecture can be designed according to the required recovery window.
Separate Production From Backup Infrastructure
Keep the Restore Points Your Business Needs
Retention policies determine how many historical versions of your data are maintained and for how long. Different systems may require different recovery windows.
Recover What You Need When You Need It
File Recovery
Restore selected files or directories where supported.
Database Recovery
Restore supported database backup sets.
Server Recovery
Recover supported server workloads from available backups.
VM Recovery
Restore eligible virtual machines and workload data.
Point-in-Time Recovery
Recover from an available historical restore point where supported.
Custom Recovery
Plan recovery workflows around complex application environments.
Backup Architecture Built Around Your Data
Protect Data Across Critical Workloads
Backup Designed With Infrastructure Context
Backup strategy should reflect how your servers, applications, storage and networks actually operate. HostGraber can combine backup with infrastructure monitoring, server management and Disaster Recovery.
From Data Assessment to Recovery-Ready Backups
Assessment
Identify workloads, data size and protection requirements.
Policy Design
Define backup frequency, retention and recovery objectives.
Provisioning
Provision approved storage and backup workflows.
Validation
Validate backup jobs and available restore points.
Monitor & Review
Review capacity, backup health and policy changes over time.
Protect Data and Protect Business Continuity
Backup & Recovery FAQs
What is backup and recovery?
Backup creates recoverable copies of data, while recovery restores that data when the production copy becomes unavailable or unusable.
Can you back up dedicated servers?
Backup solutions can be designed for eligible dedicated server environments according to platform and technical requirements.
Can virtual machines be backed up?
Supported virtual environments can be included in a backup architecture according to platform capabilities.
How frequently should backups run?
Backup frequency depends on how frequently data changes and how much recent data the organisation can tolerate losing.
What is backup retention?
Retention defines how long backup copies or restore points are preserved before they are rotated or removed.
What are RPO and RTO?
RPO represents acceptable data loss measured in time, while RTO represents the target time for restoring a system after an incident.
Is backup the same as Disaster Recovery?
No. Backup primarily protects data, while Disaster Recovery covers the broader process of restoring applications, infrastructure and business services.
Can HostGraber design a custom backup solution?
Yes. Backup architecture can be designed around data size, retention, frequency, storage, recovery and workload requirements.
Build a Backup Strategy You Can Recover From
Share your servers, data size, retention and recovery requirements. Our infrastructure team can help design backup storage, schedules, restore points and recovery workflows around your environment.
