Backups on completely separate infrastructure
Most cheap hosts store backups on the same server as your site. If the server dies, so do the backups. Kapsule stores every backup in encrypted object storage on a separate network, separate failure domain.
- Separate infrastructure, not the same server as your site
- Separate failure domain from your hosting
- Geographic redundancy built into R2
- Backups survive even a full server failure
