French term or phrase: hébergement en principal et en backup

I think I understand this but am not sure how to express it authentically in the English jargon. The context is a description of a web hosting company. Here's the full phrase:
"XXX est présent dans plusieurs data centers. Il est hébergé en principal et en backup chez XXX, XXX et XXX."
Would love some help on this!
