rsync.net
Our History
rsync.net began providing cloud storage for offsite backups in the fall of 2001, for our original corporate parent, JohnCompanies.
In 2005, we became a stand-alone firm dedicated only to offsite backup. We provide this simple product and nothing else.
Our Team
John Kozubik - Founder / CEO
John Kozubik founded rsync.net in 2001 as a feature for an ISP that he owned. Later, in 2005, rsync.net was spun off as a stand-alone firm providing services to the general public.
Originally from Colorado, but now living in the San Francisco Bay Area, John has been a UNIX engineer for over 25 years and is a pioneer in cloud computing. His first firm, JohnCompanies was the first provider of virtual colocated servers (what we now know as "virtual private servers", or "VPS") and rsync.net pre-dates almost all current cloud storage providers.
John attended the University of Colorado at Boulder, was a Naval Reservist for eight years, and is a volunteer firefighter.
