Azure Backup Services in the UK for Dental Practices
Native Azure backup services managed for Dental Practices.
Native Azure Protection
Azure Backup integrates directly with your Azure environment — no additional infrastructure required, just configure and protect.
Pay-As-You-Go
No upfront investment in backup hardware. Azure Backup charges per protected instance and storage consumed, scaling with your needs.
Managed & Monitored
Our team configures policies, monitors every job, investigates failures, and tests restores — you get protection without the operational burden.
Dental Practices increasingly use Microsoft Azure for hosting and cloud services. Azure Backup provides native, integrated protection, but configuring and managing it effectively for patient dental records requires specialist Azure expertise.
Cloudswitched provides managed Azure backup services for UK dental practices. We configure, monitor, and optimise Azure Backup to protect your servers, databases, VMs, and cloud workloads with geo-redundant UK storage and SLA-backed recovery.
How it works for Dental businesses
A clear, structured process from consultation to ongoing support.
1
Policy Configuration
We design backup policies for each workload type based on your RPO, RTO, and retention requirements. Different workloads receive different treatment — your SQL databases are not backed up the same way as your file shares.
2
Centralised Monitoring
All backup vaults and jobs are monitored through our operations platform. Failures, warnings, and anomalies are detected and addressed the same day.
3
Recovery Assurance
Scheduled restore tests verify that backups produce complete, usable data. We document test results and share them with you quarterly.
