• A high level of security with 256 bit encryption and backups stored only on the customer's secure servers
• Regulatory compliance with backups available for on-demand recovery to comply with HIPAA, SOX, and PCI regulations

Quotes

Peter Zaitsev, Founder and CEO of Percona, Inc.
"Successful MySQL server backup and recovery requires the right tools and the ability to repeatedly follow a set of complex processes that must always be done right in order to avoid putting your applications at risk in case of data loss. Offered as a managed backup-as-a-service solution, the Percona Backup Service is a simpler, more flexible and more cost-effective alternative to managing MySQL backups in-house. It is a convenient alternative for organizations running mission critical web and mobile applications that lack the internal personnel or processes to guarantee the availability of their backup data in case of a disaster recovery scenario."
