An
Online Backup Service is an Internet-based service that allows computer
users to routinely backup and recover their important data using a
secure and trusted server on the Internet.
If you use your computer to create and save valuable data for business
or personal reasons, you should make some type of backup of your
important data to prevent a total loss in the event of any kind of
system failure or human error. Simple data backup can be done by saving
your data to multiple locations, copying the data from its original
location to removable media, another hard drive, or another computers
hard drive on the network.
To make this task easier, specialized programs known as Backup Software
exist to aid users in regularly making a backup copy of their data.
Since some users are not interested in managing the tasks necessary for
maintaining their own backups, a new breed of backup software was
created, known as Online Backup Software. Online Backup software is
designed to routinely copy your important files to a private, secure
location on the Internet by securely transmitting your data over your
existing Internet connection.
If you have a working Internet connection on your computer, you can use
EdataSOS Online Backup Service to keep your important files safe from
disaster.
Technology
FastBIT Technology
The
FastBIT™ patching process is the core technology behind our
revolutionary program. The patching process involves the comparison of
two different versions of the same file and extracting the differences
between the files. When the differences are extracted from the two
files, they are saved into a new file and compressed into what is known
as a Patch. The patch file is often 85% to 99.9% smaller than the file
which the patch was extracted from originally.
Applying this technology to the backup process will reduce the use of
communication lines, backup tapes, and physical storage, all leading to
one thing... Cost Savings! Reduce your costs without sacrificing the
integrity of your backups. Here's how our FastBIT patching technology
is applied to your backup process.
When our backup program encounters a file for the first time, it
compresses the file and sends it securely to the backup server. Once a
file has been compressed and sent to the server, never again will we
send that entire file to the server. All future changes to your files
will result in only the changes within the files being sent to the
server. When the changes are received by the server, they are applied
to your backup files creating a complete up-to-date copy of your file
system. As an optional service, your daily FastBIT Patch Backup files
can be stored separately on the server allowing the flexibility of
restoring any file(s) from your backup data as of any point in time.

"Stop & Go" (Checkpoint) Support
With "Stop & Go", backups can be restarted from where a failure occurred within a file during a disconnect, crash or system shutdown. Previous versions of NovaNet-WEB only restarted at the beginning of the last unsuccessful file that was sent.

Resynchronize File History
This new function permits the client to resynchronize its local file history with the backup server. Failed systems can be replaced with new systems and permit the backup client to start from where it left off rather than require the user to perform another full backup.

Auto Correct Backup Function
An automatic client feature that will force a full backup of any file selected on the client that does not exist on the server.

Confirmation of file selection
