The Common Misconception in Hosting Services
In today’s digital landscape, the hosting company you choose is the virtual “real estate” for your website. Yet, many Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) owners labour under the dangerous misconception that hosting services manage every facet of their website’s back-end. This misperception is more than just an oversight; it can be financially crippling. Standard hosting companies usually only provide server space, leaving essential tasks like backups, firewall management, updates, and security measures on the shoulders of the website owner.
A Cautionary Tale: The OVH Data Centre Fire
The fire that engulfed the OVH data centre in Strasbourg, France, in 2022 serves as a stark example. When the catastrophe struck OVH, Europe’s largest data centre for hosting services, many customers were told that their data backups were stored on the same site. The consequence? Countless websites were irretrievably lost.
An Eye-Opening Survey
Our 2023 survey among Irish SMEs revealed alarming figures: 85% of website owners do not know the location of their backups, and 70% are unaware of the frequency of these backups.
