Enabling Data Compliance
You Control Where Your Data is Stored and How It's Used
Applies to Provider Snapshots and SnapShooter Backups
Snapshots
SnapShooter's Snapshot system ensures that you control your data. Your backups live where and with whom you want them to. This allows you to keep your data anywhere, such as close to your server location for quick backups and restores.
If you use DigitalOcean, you can easily transfer your data to a secondary region. This is great for redundancy and data security.

SnapShooter Backup Engine
SnapShooter's Backup Engine gives you total control of the flow of your data. With our Backup Engine, your data flows from your server directly to your storage. Your data never touches a SnapShooter server.
Using Own Server
If you are using your own server, all you need to do is tell us where your data should be stored. When we start a backup, we tell your server to connect to a data source and transfer it directly to your storage.
Using SnapShooter Compute Engine
SnapShooter's Compute Engine runs on servers that live around the world at every AWS region. This means you can select a region close to you for speed, or if you need to meet your compliance requirements. Just like with our Backup Engine, data flows from your source to your storage directly.
