StoreGrid Service Provider Edition enables you to offer an automated online backup service to your SMB customers and is designed to be flexible to your deployment needs. StoreGrid offers you a host of deployment options to fit every backup scenario. You can deploy StoreGrid backup solution at the customer premises, your managed data center/co-lo or Cloud service like the Amazon Cloud. StoreGrid can be deployed in two ways according to your requirement.
1. Direct Remote Backup over the Internet: You could deploy StoreGrid Backup Server in your own data center / co-lo and offer backup services to your business customers with client machines directly backing up over the Internet to a remote StoreGrid Backup Server Cluster. In this case, the StoreGrid Backup Server Cluster can be configured with a centralized storage system (for the backup data) which could be a NAS, SAN, private cloud storage or even public cloud storage.
2. Backup `on-premise` and Replicate to Remote location: In case the local backup server is required at the customer premises, StoreGrid can be deployed as a local on-site backup server with client machines backing up to a locally deployed (on-premise) StoreGrid Backup Server cluster. The backup data can be replicated securely to a StoreGrid Replication Server at an off-site location (e.g. managed NAS, SAN, private cloud storage or a public cloud storage like the Amazon Cloud). StoreGrid Service Provider Edition comes with a host of features specifically designed for the needs of MSPs, VARs, ISPs and managed hosting Service Providers for managing their remote backup offerings.
