FAQ – Frequently asked questions


WHAT SHOULD I BEAR IN MIND REGARDING THE ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN OF CLOUD DATA
CENTERS AND CLOUD APPLICATIONS IN THE IONOS COMPUTE ENGINE?

Scalability, elasticity, and robustness are the most important characteristics
of any cloud-based application. An enterprise cloud computing architecture must
be designed based on these characteristics. In particular, it must be able to
cope with strongly fluctuating loads on the virtual systems and enormous amounts
of data, while at the same time making sure the operations run in an efficient
and economical manner. Redundancy, regular snapshots, and backups are mandatory.

Measures for building a cloud architecture at enterprise level:



 * Availability at cluster level or even as a high availability application
   including fail-over and continued data consistency
 * Distribution of entities including mirroring of the applications and virtual
   data centers, and also with the help of geographical redundancy (in parallel
   operation of both the infrastructure and the programming of an application)
 * Scalability without interrupting ongoing operations and should be as vertical
   as possible to save resources; in addition, enable the development of
   shared-nothing systems
 * Automation, which must be made possible with the help of microservices,
   especially in times of agile software development and CI/CD
 * Configuration management, security design, access management including
   logging or multi-client capability
 * Step-by-step migration and preparation of the cloud for hybrid or multi-cloud
   operation
 * Prevention of lock-in through proprietary cloud technologies






DOES THE IONOS COMPUTE ENGINE INFRASTRUCTURE INCLUDE A RELIABLE BACKUP SYSTEM?

Backup and disaster recovery strategies are essential for businesses in order to
minimize the impact of system failures. The IONOS Compute Engine provides you
with an effective tool for this in the form of Acronis Cloud Backup.

Disaster Recovery

For the average company, data is crucial for working processes. Therefore, it
should be backed up effectively so that it can be restored very quickly in case
of an emergency. Successful disaster recovery means that efficient workflows can
resume as soon as possible.

The advantages are clear:



 * Short downtimes mean that a company can still be reached at practically any
   time, which leads to growing trust in the company and an improved brand
   image.
 * A company's ability to conduct business is also maintained and
 * financial losses are kept within reasonable limits.
 * Helps companies comply with their obligation to keep accounting and financial
   data in accordance with data protection measures.



Business continuity and disaster recovery

Business Continuity Management comprises all measures that ensure that the
ongoing operations of a company are affected as little as possible in extreme or
catastrophic situations (e.g. power failure, pandemics, natural disasters) or
can be restored to normal very quickly.

Disaster recovery strategies, on the other hand, refer to the rapid restoration
of IT systems and stored data.

In order for disaster recovery to be successful, a plan for structured data
recovery must be in place.

When deciding how best to proceed, the following questions could help:



 * How much data may be lost? (Recovery Point Objective, RPO)
 * Which data saving method do I choose and at what intervals should it be
   saved?
 * How long can the system be down for before it becomes critical for the
   business? (Recovery Time Objective, RTO)
 * What is the ideal location for backups?
 * What types of backups are available and how are they best used?





 1. Full backup
 2. Differential backup
 3. Incremental backup



Data backup with Acronis Backup Cloud and the IONOS Compute Engine

The Compute Engine mirrors a so-called public cloud. But not all elements of an
IT infrastructure need to be in the cloud: on-premises solutions are often
combined with components in the cloud. Acronis Cloud Backup backs up all these
components reliably. You can also use Acronis Cloud Backup for IT systems that
are not in the enterprise cloud at all.

The advantage is that it is easy to use: In the user interface and API of the
Compute Engine, you will find a button to access the Acronis backup console.
Here you determine which servers or VMs are backed up, and with which saving
method. This will make your work easier even if you move your system from "real"
hardware to the cloud at a later point or simply partially move it: Access to
the Acronis Backup Console is always located in the same place, no matter how
much your system changes over time.

Acronis initially performs a full backup and then saves changes incrementally.
In the event of an incident, the entire data backup can later be restored as a
full backup – all at the push of a button. With Acronis Cloud Backup in the
Compute Engine, you have a powerful tool at hand that helps you to protect all
components of your IT system appropriately.




WHAT EFFECT DOES USING THE IONOS COMPUTE ENGINE HAVE ON MY PREVIOUS IN-HOUSE
DATA MANAGEMENT?

Data management is the sum of all technical, conceptual and organizational
measures and procedures for the collection, storage and provision of data. This
is so that various processes in companies can be optimally supported. Data
management includes measures to ensure…



 * Data quality
 * Data consistency
 * Data security
 * Data encryption
 * Data archiving
 * Data access
 * Data deletion
 * Data life cycle management.



The various aspects and elements of data collection, data access, and data
storage are also taken into account as part of data management.

The IONOS Compute Engine provides virtual data centers that the customer can
configure according to their own requirements and are able to use like
conventional data centers. In the cloud, there are no limits when it comes to
implementing an internal data management guideline or following external
compliance guidelines.

As a product of IONOS SE with headquarters and data centers in Germany, the
IONOS Compute Engine is fully subject to the GDPR requirements and
simultaneously offers maximum security against the US CLOUD Act.




WILL IONOS HELP ME MIGRATE MY CURRENT STORAGE TO THE CLOUD?

The IONOS Compute Engine knows the importance of developing a strategy so that
the customer can use the cloud as optimally as possible. Professional service
cloud consultants take the customer by the hand and work with them to develop
meaningful cloud architectures and test them using a proof-of-concept.

Customers use a large amount of scripts and best practice papers for migrating
IT workloads. If a problem arises, customers turn to our professional 24/7
support, where they can receive detailed instructions from trained system
administrators.




WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE COMPUTE ENGINE AND PRIVATE CLOUDS?

The IONOS Compute Engine is a so-called public cloud and offers
infrastructure-as-a-service and platform-as-a-service.

Unlike a private cloud, the public cloud offers services available to the
general public and not exclusively for a specific organization. A private cloud
is either operated by the organization itself or provided exclusively by a
service provider for this specific organization.

The use of a public cloud can be restricted by strict legal data protection
regulations or by security concerns. In certain industries, regulation prohibits
the transfer of data to external service providers who do not meet the strict
data protection requirements. In such cases, either the IONOS Compute Engine
(with maximum security under the US Cloud Act), a private cloud, or a hybrid
cloud (a mixture of private and public clouds), is the best option.

The hybrid cloud offers combined access to the services of a public cloud and a
private cloud depending on the requirements of the respective application.
Compared to the public cloud, an advantage of the private cloud is that the
performance of the services is influenced even less by other customers than in
the kernel-centered virtualization of the IONOS Compute Engine.
