What is hosting environment escrow?
Hosting environment escrow is a legal agreement where a software provider deposits the credentials and billing details needed to manage, maintain, and fund the cloud infrastructure their application depends on.
A trusted third party like Codekeeper stores these materials securely and uses them — only under continuity conditions — to keep hosting services active until normal operations resume.
Hosting environment escrow is part of Codekeeper’s broader Continuity Escrow solution.
