Images are stored within on-site and offsite storage locations as selected by customer. Depending on customer application deployment Server Backup will include a system suspension or shutdown and restart.
• Onsite Storage: a network connection between customer's server and Orcon onsite storage is established, with an allocation of secure storage, scalable on demand.
