Hosting Access database online means deploying your Microsoft Access database on cloud servers (Azure, AWS, or Terminal Server) instead of storing it on a local computer or file server. This enables your team to access the database from anywhere—home, office, or field locations—via Remote Desktop or VPN. The database runs on secure cloud infrastructure with automatic backups, 99.9% uptime, and scalable resources. Users connect remotely and see the full Access interface exactly as if it were installed locally, but the application and data are securely hosted in the cloud.
Remote Access: Access your database from home, office, or anywhere with internet
Work from Home: Enable remote work without VPN complexity or file sharing issues
Multi-User Collaboration: Multiple users access simultaneously without conflicts
Automatic Backups: Daily cloud backups protect against data loss
No Hardware Costs: Eliminate on-premises servers and IT maintenance
Scalability: Add users or storage instantly without buying hardware
Disaster Recovery: Restore to new server within 1-2 hours if needed
Security: Enterprise-grade cloud security with encryption and MFA
Integration: Connect to Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and cloud services
Cost Savings: Reduce IT costs by 40% compared to on-premises infrastructure
