You can use eSurfing Cloud's cloud server backup product and EVS backup product to back up data on the elastic cloud server. In the event of a cloud server or EVS fault, data loss or damage caused by software, or accidental data deletion due to human error, you can use the backup feature to quickly and self-serve restore the data.
CSBS
Cloud Server Backup (CT-CSBS, Cloud Server Backup Service) provides backup protection services for elastic cloud servers, supports backup services based on EVS snapshot technology, and supports the recovery of elastic cloud server data using backup data. Through the Cloud Server Backup Service, you can restore cloud server data in the event of data loss, system faults, human errors, or malicious attacks, ensuring the continuity of business and the security of data.
For more information, please refer to the Cloud Server Backup.
VBS
EVS Backup (CT-VBS, Volume Backup Service) is a backup service provided for the system and data disks of cloud servers. Users can back up EVSs that store important data and, in the event of EVS faults, accidental data deletion by users, or hacker attacks, quickly restore data using backups to ensure the maximum security of user data.
For more information, please refer to the EVS Backup.
Differences between Cloud Server Backup and EVS Backup
Product Name | Backup Object | Product and Service Description | Scenario |
CSBS | Cloud Server | Full-system backup, using storage snapshot technology, backs up the data of multiple EVSs included in the cloud server to OBS. | For scenarios where you need to protect the entire cloud server, or wish to use backups to create cloud servers for quickly duplicating the business operating environment, it is recommended to use cloud server backup. |
VBS | EVS | Using storage snapshot technology, the data on the EVS is backed up to OBS. | For scenarios where there is no custom data on the system disk, you can choose to use EVS backup for both the system disk and data disks to ensure data security while reducing backup costs. |
