Backing up to 'the cloud'

As of today most of our hosted websites have been backed up, including databases, configuration files and website content, to the AmazonS3 network - colloquially referred to as 'the cloud'.

Data stored on the cloud is distributed between potentially thousands of servers and server farms world-wide and is accessible from anywhere and, at least in theory, immune to geographic events.

The cloud backups are now occuring weeklydaily alongside our weekly on-site and off-site backups which we will continue. So your data is being backed up in 3-4 separate locations, in addition the AmazonS3 ('cloud') network.
