Restore

Reliable Backup and Data Recovery
Designed for Canadian Infrastructure

Hut 8 Restore provides secure backup and data recovery services that protect against data loss, corruption, and ransomware; ensuring recoverability when it matters.

The Recovery Gap Most Organizations Face

Backups exist but recovery confidence often doesn’t.

Organizations struggle with:

Untested recovery procedures

Tool complexity

Slow restore times

Fragmented accountability

Restore bridges the gap between storing backups and achieving reliable recovery.

Hut 8 Restore

Hut 8 Restore is a managed backup and recovery service designed to protect data across cloud and colocation environments.

It delivers clear recovery processes, Canadian data residency, and operational simplicity.

Hut 8 Restore protects against data-level incidents, including:

Accidental deletion

Data corruption

Ransomware attacks

Insider errors

Application-level data loss

Key Benefits

Testable Recovery Workflows

Hut 8 Restore provides fully testable, automated recovery workflows that let you validate your entire backup and restore process regularly; without disrupting production. Through scheduled non-disruptive testing, simulations, and reporting, we ensure your defined RTO/RPO targets are realistic and achievable, giving you confidence that recovery will work when it matters most.

Protection Against Ransomware and Data Loss

Hut 8 Restore safeguards your data with advanced ransomware defense, including immutable backups, air-gapped storage options, and isolated recovery environments that prevent encryption or deletion of backup copies. Combined with continuous monitoring and rapid point-in-time restores, it minimizes data loss and ensures clean, uncompromised recovery; even after sophisticated attacks.

Operational Simplicity

Hut 8 Restore delivers hands-off, fully managed BUaaS that eliminates complexity for your team. We handle backup scheduling, monitoring, replication, testing, and optimization across your environments, so you focus on core business instead of managing tools, storage, or recovery scripts; streamlining operations while maintaining enterprise-grade reliability.

Canadian Data Residency

Hut 8 Restore keeps all your backup and recovery data sovereign within Canada, hosted in our Tier III-grade data centers across Ontario (Greater Toronto Area) and British Columbia (Vancouver, Kelowna). This ensures full compliance with Canadian privacy regulations, low-latency access for domestic users, and protection from cross-border data risks; delivering secure, compliant resilience tailored for Canadian organizations.

Common Use Cases

Protecting production environments

Meeting audit and compliance requirements

Recovering from accidental deletion or corruption

Supporting ransomware resilience

The best backup is one you've tested. Untested recovery plans are just wishful thinking; real resilience comes from knowing your workflows work when disaster strikes.

FAQ

Q
What’s the difference between Backup as a Service (BaaS/BUaaS) and Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)?
A

BaaS/BUaaS provides managed backup; copies of your data stored securely and recoverable on demand. DRaaS goes further, replicating systems and orchestrating failover so applications and compute come back online fast. Most high-availability strategies use both.

Q
Do I need a business continuity plan if I already have backups?
A

Yes. Backups protect data, but a business continuity plan covers end-to-end operations: people, facilities, vendors, apps, and recovery processes. Without a continuity management plan, restores can still take too long to meet RTO/RPO requirements.

Q
What are RTO and RPO, and why do they matter for HPC?
A

RTO is how quickly services must be restored; RPO is how much data loss is acceptable. HPC workloads often need tight RTOs (jobs restart fast) and low RPOs (data integrity), which is why optimized disaster recovery is essential.

Q
How does Hut 8 protect against ransomware and cyber-driven outages?
A

We use immutable backup options, isolated recovery environments, encryption, and regularly tested runbooks, core best practices in modern BCDR.

Q
What makes your managed backup and BaaS superior to competitors?
A

Hut 8's managed backup and BaaS leverage geo-redundant storage, AI-driven deduplication, and 24/7 monitoring across five Canadian data centers, reducing storage costs by up to 40% while guaranteeing data integrity. As business continuity providers, we emphasize Canadian sovereignty and seamless integration with your business continuity management plan.

Q
Can I customize a business continuity plan with Hut 8?
A

Absolutely. Our experts craft bespoke business continuity plans, incorporating your specific RTO/RPO needs, HPC requirements, and risk profile. From initial assessment to ongoing testing, we weave in disaster recovery and business continuity elements for proactive protection.

Q
What uptime guarantees do your data centers provide for optimized disaster recovery?
A

All Hut 8 facilities deliver 99.9% or greater uptime, backed by N+1/2N redundancy in power, cooling, and networks. This foundation enables our optimized disaster recovery services to handle HPC loads with minimal disruption, ensuring business continuity in even the most challenging scenarios.

Q
How often should disaster recovery testing happen?
A

At least annually for full failover tests, and more frequently for critical systems or high-change environments. Regular testing is required by leading frameworks like NIST and ISO-aligned BCMS programs.

Q
Can Hut 8 act as our business continuity provider even if parts of our stack are elsewhere?
A

Yes. We support hybrid continuity models, protecting data with BaaS/BUaaS, orchestrating DRaaS for supported workloads, and integrating with your existing tools and governance.
