CDN network & back-ups

Maglr hosts your published projects in Frankfurt (EU) and delivers them worldwide through a content delivery network (CDN), so visitors load them from a server near them. Maglr also backs up your content on its servers, and the editor keeps back-ups of each page that you can restore yourself.


Hosting and CDN


Published projects are hosted on AWS in Frankfurt, in the EU, and distributed worldwide through the Cloudflare CDN. This makes a publication load quickly everywhere: a visitor in Australia, for example, downloads the content from a server nearby.


  • Original data: the files you upload are always stored at the hosting location in Frankfurt.
  • Cached copies: the CDN keeps temporary copies of your published content on servers around the world.


You can secure a project with a password at any time, so visitors have to enter the password before they can open it.


Data traffic per plan


Each plan includes a monthly amount of data traffic on a fair-use basis. The amounts per plan are on the pricing page. If you regularly use more than your plan includes, Maglr contacts you.


Server back-ups


Maglr backs up all content on its servers, both the data you upload and the published data Maglr generates. Only Maglr can restore these back-ups.


  • A back-up is made every day and kept for 7 days.
  • A complete back-up is made once a week.
  • A monthly back-up is kept for 6 months.
  • Additional back-ups are kept at a second location, in Ireland.


To get data back from one of these server back-ups, email support@maglr.com. Extracting data from an older back-up can take a few hours, so Maglr charges extra for it.


Restoring a page from the editor


The editor keeps back-ups of each page, which you can restore yourself. It saves the most recent versions plus older versions spread out over roughly the past year. A restore works per page, not for the whole project.


  1. In the editor, open the options menu in the top-left corner, marked by an M.
  2. Click Retrieve back-up.
  3. Select the back-up you want by its date, time and page title.
  4. Click Recover.
  5. Click Save to keep the restored version of the page.
