Cloud backup

What is meant by Cloud backup?

"Cloud Backup" refers to the practice of backing up data to the cloud by storing copies of the data on remote servers or data centers of a cloud provider. Cloud backup offers the advantage of securely and reliably storing data outside of the local network, providing additional redundancy and protection against data loss.

Typical features of software in the "Cloud Backup" domain include:

  1. Automation: The software allows for the automatic scheduling and execution of backup jobs to the cloud, ensuring that backups are created regularly and reliably.

  2. Encryption: The software provides encryption features to ensure the security and confidentiality of backup data during transmission and storage in the cloud.

  3. Deduplication: The software performs deduplication to improve the efficiency of cloud backups by storing identical data blocks only once.

  4. Scalability: The software is scalable and can handle the growth of data volume and organizational requirements without compromising performance or reliability.
