Features / Daily Snapshots
What are daily snapshots and how do they work?
A point-in-time image of your entire server is taken automatically every day, so a bad update or deleted file is a quick rollback instead of a restore project.
How it works, technically
Snapshots capture the block-level state of the whole VPS at an instant: OS, databases, files, configuration, everything consistent at that moment. They live on fast storage close to your server, which is what makes rollbacks measured in minutes rather than hours.
Snapshots and backups solve different problems on purpose. Snapshots are the fast undo for recent mistakes: the plugin update that broke the site this morning. The dual remote backups are disaster insurance in separate failure domains. You want both layers, and every plan has both.

FAQ
Daily Snapshots, answered.
Can I trigger a snapshot manually?
Yes, before risky changes you can take an on-demand snapshot via your client area or by asking support.
How long are snapshots kept?
Snapshots rotate on a short daily retention designed for quick rollbacks; longer history lives in the dual remote backups.
Do snapshots slow the server?
The snapshot mechanism is designed for negligible impact and runs during low-activity windows.
Your server runs. You sleep.
