What is cloud backup, and why do you need it?

Cloud backup

Cloud backup means keeping a copy of your files on secure external servers over the internet, instead of relying on your device or an external disk in the same office. If the device fails, gets lost or infected, your files stay safe and you restore them anytime, from anywhere. It is a core part of protecting any business, whatever its size.

Device or disk failureDisks fail suddenly, taking years of files with them.
Ransomware and hackingYour files get encrypted for ransom; a backup is the way back.
Accidental deletionA file deleted or changed by mistake comes back from the backup.
Lost or stolen devicesThe device can be replaced; the files stay safe in the cloud.

Website backup: daily, weekly and monthly for business hosting

With Hyyat Host business hosting plans, your site gets automatic daily, weekly and monthly backups from the server, plus a monthly off-site copy, with no setup on your part. Other plans vary, and limited plans do not include backups.

Daily backupTaken automatically every morning at a set hour, replacing the previous day's copy.
Weekly backupTaken automatically at the start of each week, replacing the previous week's copy.
Monthly backupTaken automatically at the start of each month, replacing the previous month's copy.
What does "daily backup" mean exactly?

We do not keep a separate copy for every day of the year; that would need servers twice the size of the hosting. Instead we take today's copy at, say, 7 am; it stays available for 24 hours, and the next morning a new copy replaces it, all year round. Weekly and monthly backups work the same way. So you can always restore your site as it was yesterday, at the start of the week, or at the start of the month. Business plans also get a monthly off-site copy. Still, these copies are an extra help whose completeness we cannot guarantee, so we always advise keeping your own backup, which is where the backup plans or Storage Box help.

How often does a website backup need to run?

Backup frequency depends on the type of site; it is always best to make it automatic and at least daily.

Site typeBackup frequencyWhy
Online storesAt least dailyOrders, customers and data change every hour.
EmailDailyBusiness messages cannot be replaced.
Online gaming sitesDailyPlayer accounts and progress change constantly.
News sites and blogsWith every updateEvery new article deserves a copy.
Development environmentsWith every code changeSo you can return to the last good version.
Static sitesMonthly or on any changeContent that rarely changes.

Where should backups be kept?

On the same server Least safeFast but risky: if the disk fails or the server is hacked, the copy may go with the data.
On a separate external server SafestThe copy is away from your server, unaffected by its failure or a breach.
On an external disk SafeAn extra safe copy outside the server, like a Storage Box or our backup plans.

Tips for a reliable backup

  1. The 3-2-1 ruleThree copies of your data, on two different media, one of them off-site; the cloud is that off-site copy.
  2. Pick a bit more spaceTake your current data size and add about half for growth, so the space does not fill quickly.
  3. Test a restoreRestore a file or folder now and then to be sure the backup is sound before you really need it.
  4. Separate permissionsGive each employee their own account; never share one password across the team.
  5. Back up regularlyAn old copy does not protect today's work; make backups a steady habit.
  6. Servers have another fitFor technical site and server backups, Storage Box or server management suits you better.

How to start the backup service

  1. Pick a planBased on your data size.
  2. OrderBy ticket or WhatsApp with the plan name.
  3. We set it upAnd send your login details.
  4. Connect devicesAnd add users and groups.
  5. Files protectedRestore them whenever you want.

Backup service FAQ

Did not find your answer? Ask us on WhatsApp.

What is the cloud backup service?

A service that keeps a copy of your important files on secure servers outside your office, over the internet, so you can restore them if a device fails, gets lost or infected.

How much does the backup service cost?

Plans start from $7 per month for 100GB and go up to 2TB. Every plan has unlimited users and groups.

How is it different from Storage Box?

Backup is a managed service we set up for you, to protect business files and team devices easily. Storage Box is raw space used with technical tools like FTP and rsync, suited to developers and server backups.

Which systems are supported?

Most operating systems, including Windows, Mac and Linux.

Is my data encrypted?

Yes, data is encrypted in transit over the network and at rest on the servers.

How many users can I add?

Unlimited users and groups on every plan, so each employee gets an account and departments get groups.

What if the space fills up?

Move to a bigger plan anytime without losing files; you can also move down to a smaller one.

Who sets up the service?

We do; this is a managed backup service run by the Hyyat Host team. We set up the space, send your login details and help you configure it.

Do you back up hosting customers' websites?

It depends on the plan: business plans get automatic daily, weekly and monthly website backup with a monthly off-site copy, while limited plans include no backups. Either way, these copies are an extra help and do not replace your own backup, as the hosting agreement explains.

Why can I not find a backup for a specific old day?

Because each daily backup replaces the previous day's, and the same goes for weekly and monthly. What is always available: yesterday's copy, the start of the week, and the start of the month.

Is it suited to server backups?

The backup plans are designed for business files and devices. For technical server backups Storage Box fits better, and to have us handle backups on your server, add server management.
