HYCU® R-Cloud™, our Data Protection as a Service (DPaaS) platform, supports everything from hyperscalers to SaaS, PaaS, DBaaS, IaaS, and hybrid cloud environments. But one of the most common questions we get is:

👉 "What does the 'R' in HYCU R-Cloud stand for?"

The answer is simple and powerful: The ‘R’ stands for Resiliency. Our solution, HYCU Data Resiliency Cloud (R-Cloud), addresses complexity by providing a single, streamlined view of data protection and backup operations.

Why is Resiliency Critical for Cloud Data Protection?

Today, data is scattered across on-premises servers, multiple cloud providers, SaaS applications, and hybrid environments. Managing, protecting, and ensuring recoverability for all this data is a major challenge for businesses.

That’s why HYCU R-Cloud was built: to offer a comprehensive, unified, and simplified approach to data protection—no matter where your data resides.

Myth: Cloud-Based Backup Means Losing Control of Your Data

A common misconception is that moving backups to the cloud means losing control over your data. That couldn’t be further from the truth.

At HYCU, we follow a fundamentally different approach from traditional data protection providers:

Data Ownership: Your data always remains in your control.
No Vendor Lock-In: We never store or lock your data in proprietary systems.
Flexibility & Choice: You decide where your backups are stored—on-premises, in a public cloud, or in a hybrid setup.

With HYCU R-Cloud, you get a seamless, intuitive, and scalable backup and recovery solution across any location or provider—on your terms.

HYCU R-Cloud: The Power of Freedom, Security, and Flexibility

When we say resiliency, we mean a combination of freedom, security, and flexibility—ensuring that your business data is protected, recoverable, and truly yours.

With HYCU R-Cloud, you benefit from:

Comprehensive Data Protection – Secure backups across all environments.
Reliable Recovery – Faster disaster recovery and minimized downtime.
Deployment Flexibility – Choose on-premises deployment behind your firewall or a fully managed Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) model.
