Is rsync Enabled at Hostinger?

Using rsync on Web and Cloud hosting plans at Hostinger

Updated over a year ago

Remote synchronization (rsync) is a Linux tool used to synchronize data and transfer files between devices. Since it only transfers the differences between the source and destination, it reduces the amount of data sent over the network, making it a fast and efficient solution for backups and secure file transfer between local and remote systems.

In addition, it preserves file permissions, timestamps, and ownership during the synchronization process.

Since rsync requires SSH access, it can be used on our Web Premium, Web Business and Cloud hosting plans.

If you already have a Single plan and you want to use rsync, you can consider upgrading your hosting plan 🚀
