Platform/Resilience/Backup Service

Backups that prove themselves.

Policy-based backup across VMs, databases and files — immutable copies, scheduled restore tests, retention mapped to your compliance calendar.

Compare the policies

Standard, immutable, or long-retention

Every policy is verified by restore testing — the difference is how hard the copies are to destroy and how long they live.

Daily, tested

Policy-based backup across VMs, databases and object buckets with scheduled restore tests — protection that has been proven, not assumed.

Two ways to run it

Per estate, or per pool

Both include verified restores. The difference is whether one policy set covers the whole estate or each pool keeps its own.

Per EstateOne policy setBackup policies, schedules and retention applied across the whole estate, so every workload and pool inherits protection by tier.
Estate-wide policy by tier
One protection report for all workloads
Central restore-test evidence
Best for:A single governed organisation
Explore Per Estate plans
OR
Per PoolScoped per poolProtection scoped to each capacity pool, subsidiary or entity — isolated policies, isolated retention and reporting, one relationship.
Policies and retention per pool
Separate protection report each
Independent restore evidence

Who decides, who runs it

What each group gets from Backup

Four groups shape a cloud decision. Pick the one you belong to — the platform reads differently from each seat.

The backup claim is now evidenced

Restore tests produce reports, so the statement that data is protected is backed by results rather than by a schedule.

FAQs

Do you test restores?
Yes — scheduled restore verification is part of the service, with results reported per policy.
What is protected?
VMs, managed databases and object buckets, with policies set per workload tier.
Can backups survive a compromised admin account?
That is what the Immutable Vault is for — write-once copies with dual-control deletion.
Where are the copies stored?
In-country, with second-zone copies available, and long retention tiered into Archive Storage.
How fast is a restore?
To the recovery objective agreed per tier — file-level restores are typically minutes, full systems longer.
How is the flat fee different from public cloud pricing?
Everything inside the plan you opt for is included — no additional charge for the components that make it up. Public clouds meter each component on consumption, so the bill moves with usage. Here the plan is reserved for you and the figure you agreed is the figure you pay.
Can we drive it from Terraform and CI?
Yes. Every operation is exposed through the REST API, CLI and a maintained Terraform provider, with scoped API keys per team. If the console can do it, your pipeline can do it.
How do limits and quotas work?
Quotas are yours to shape — carve capacity per team or project and delegate inside it. Hard ceilings are a conversation, not a wall; the estate re-baselines at thresholds you approve.
Can security services be included in my plan?
Yes. Endpoint security, firewalls and WAF are scoped into the same flat fee when you add them — one figure, no separate security invoice.
Better together

Build resilience around every backup.

Connect Backup Service to the workloads, storage tiers, recovery and governance services that keep data available.

At the core
Backup Service

Managed backup becomes a complete resilience strategy when every workload, copy, retention tier and recovery path works together.
