Server Sync

Pre-requisites For WPCloudDeploy

$249.00

Billed once per year until cancelled

Server Sync allows you to clone all your sites from your live server to a stand-by server.  The clone operates every hour on the hour.

If the primary server becomes unavailable, you can point your DNS to the backup server.

If your DNS provider is a service like CloudFlare, the DNS propogation time is almost instant and your backup server goes live almost immediately.  The only data that will be missing is the new data between the time of the last clone and the primary server failure.

This is not a true high-availability solution but it does protect you from some other things such as human error.
