Leeds, UK – eUKhost, a leading web hosting provider in the UK, has announced its pledge for World Backup Day 2014 and will be celebrating by offering double storage on its remote backup plans and 25 GB of free backup space for 6 months with all new cloud hosting orders until April 5.

Remote backups are defined as a necessity in the hosting industry and facilitate the restoration of data onto a new server in the event that a disaster at the primary facility has severely impaired the network or hardware. Double storage will let customers not just take backups of their critical data, but will give them the chance to take backups of their entire server, which should put them in a better position to restore service faster in the event that data loss does occur.

Cloud hosting in itself represents an ideal data protection solution. In a boost to guarantee data integrity further, customers purchasing eUKhost’s VMWare, Hyper-V or revolutionary eNlight cloud platforms will be provided with 25 GB free backup space for 6 months that can be used to safeguard customer data.

March 31st has been marked as World Backup Day and brings together a number of names in the technology industry to promote the importance of backups to end-users. Robert King, Managing Director at eUKhost Ltd comments: “It is important for businesses to perform backups on a regular basis in order to minimise the level of loss that could be induced because of system failure.” He adds: “World Backup Day provides us with an opportunity to promote the importance of backups as technology becomes an ever increasing reliance on our everyday lives.”

“We hope by offering double storage space on Remote Backup plans and 25 GB free storage to new cloud customers, we will be able to promote the cause and encourage our customers to backup more of their data so they don’t have to worry about data loss”, Robert said.

Both offers will be running until 5th April and can be automatically redeemed during the order process for a Remote Backup plan or cloud hosting plan. Find out more here.
