Purchasing Snapshot Backups for Cloud Computes Imprimir

We currently offer snapshots of cloud computes in our Los Angeles USA and Hong Kong locations. Snapshots are not yet available for computes in our New York City USA, Dallas TX USA, or Singapore locations.

A snapshot is a point in time backup of your compute which creates an image of the entire compute as it exists when the snapshot is created. Snapshots can be used to revert a compute in its entirety to a previous date from when the snapshot was created. This is not an incremental or individual file backup.
