Backup as a Service - because data loss is not an option
Today, data is the crown jewel of almost every company and its loss can be existentially threatening. With plusbackup you can prevent data loss without needing your own backup hardware. Instead, your data is securely stored in certified data centers in Germany. You automatically comply with best practices such as the 3-2-1 rule, and optional disaster recovery plans keep you up and running without significant loss of time or revenue.

Is backup as a service cost effective?
With all of our as-a-service offerings, you benefit from a transparent pricing model:
- Only three metrics (storage, number of clients, and license fees, if applicable)
- Monthly fees with no capital expenditure (Opex)
- No hidden costs due to difficult to calculate API access charges or the like
How does GFS work?
The GFS principle means that multiple backups are always available in different time steps (grandfather – father – son).
In case of a recovery, several versions are available. At plusserver we always ensure the availability of all data by using specific storage methods (RAID, erasure coding, backup copy).
Normally, daily backups are made. However, if an accidentally deleted file is only missed after months, a large number of recovery points would be required. This would take up storage space and cost money. With GFS, individual backups are made at specific intervals, such as weekly and monthly, with separately configurable retention times. For example, Wednesday backups can be kept for eight weeks, and the last monthly backup can be kept for a full year.
How does the 3-2-1 rule work?
