Everybody in the Hosting industry is worried about performing backups. With the need, innovations in backup technologies such as CDP instant recovery, flat backups, Server virtualization, and backup appliances emerge. There is a need to protect data entirely and restore it as needed.

Disaster recovery systems must be fully advanced for mission-critical systems and business continuity, as long recovery times are unacceptable. The gap between RTO (Recovery Point Objective) and RPO (Recovery Time Objective) must be minimal.

With E-commerce proliferating, legacy scheduled backups are always inadequate. Incremental forever backup techniques are required to handle data backup daily.

Continuous data protection eliminates the problems associated with the backup window, creating frequent, block-level backups rather than nightly ones. Every few minutes, newly created or modified storage blocks are copied to the backup targets like storage arrays or remote machines. Thus reducing the recovery point objective (RPO).
Losing a few minutes of data is more affordable than losing data for an entire day.
