Disaster Recovery Platform
Continuous replication to a second datacenter, failover in minutes, recovery guaranteed in 1 hour. 150 EUR/month per VM.
Backup restores your data. DRP restores your business. These are not the same thing.
The Difference
A backup restore takes hours. Our Disaster Recovery Platform continuously replicates your full server image, all services included, to a second datacenter. When your host fails, we switch over in minutes, with a contractual recovery guarantee of 1 hour, 24/7.
How It Works
- Continuous, asynchronous replication to the secondary server: no performance impact, at most a few seconds of data on a crash
- Two distinct datacenters and several permanently health-checked load balancers: no single network head, no IP tied to one hosting provider
- Planned maintenance (provider operation, capacity upgrade, change of provider): live migration, transparent
- Crash of the primary: traffic fails over automatically and an engineer starts the machine on the secondary after verification, which prevents corruption
- Failover test twice a year, included
What the DRP Covers, and What Backup Covers
| Risk | Covered by |
|---|---|
| Hardware failure, network outage, provider maintenance | DRP |
| Extended downtime during a restoration | DRP |
| Data corruption, ransomware, human error | Backup |
| Regional disaster (flood, fire, national power failure) | Backup, in Germany and Finland |
Replication propagates corruption to the secondary: against ransomware, only backup protects. We say so before signing.
Pricing
150 EUR/month excl. VAT per replicated virtual machine: replication technology, monitoring, 24/7 on-call, shared load balancers, and failover tests. The secondary server is rented directly by you from the hosting provider. Optional dedicated fixed-IP load balancer: 90 EUR/month excl. VAT.
