Hosting provider HOSTKEY has rolled out a new feature for virtual server owners: automated VPS backups. The idea is simple — set it once, and the system will quietly do the heavy lifting while you get on with your life.
50 GB on the house
To make the start less painful, every vm-pico server in Russia comes with 50 GB of free storage. Enough room to stash a decent backup collection before space anxiety kicks in.
Key perks of the service
According to HOSTKEY, the backup solution offers three main advantages:
-
Full protection — snapshots of the entire virtual machine let you restore your server even after crashes or a fresh OS install.
-
Flexibility — backups can be downloaded and deployed anywhere, whether in a local environment or on HOSTKEY’s infrastructure.
-
Peace of mind — once the schedule is set, the system handles the rest automatically.
For those who like things spelled out, the setup flow is straightforward: pick your server in the dashboard, head over to the “Backups” section, set a schedule — and data-loss paranoia is suddenly less of a problem.
