Backup Configuration

Configuration of scheduled backups for supported systems together with appropriate retention and basic restoration procedures within the approved scope.

From $30 · 2-5 days

Overview

We identify what needs protecting, such as databases, uploaded files, configuration and server images, and agree how often each should be backed up, how long copies are kept and where they are stored. Automated jobs are set up with copies kept separately from the source system, and a test restore is performed to confirm the backups can actually be used. You receive the running schedule, restore instructions and a summary of what is and isn't covered.

Benefits

  • Automated backups without manual steps

  • Copies stored away from the source

  • Restore procedure tested in practice

  • Clear record of what is covered

What's included

  • Backup strategy
  • Automated schedules
  • Restore testing

  • Backups that exist but have never been restored
  • Uploaded files stored only on the application server
  • Preparing for a migration or major upgrade
  • Retention needs set by internal policy or client contracts

How it works

  1. Inventory of data, systems and recovery priorities
  2. Backup strategy with frequency, retention and storage location
  3. Automated job setup and failure notifications
  4. Test restore to verify the backups
  5. Documentation of schedules and restore steps

What we need from you

  • Access to the servers, databases or platforms to be backed up

Service FAQ

Backups are stored in a location separate from the source system, such as another server or object storage in an account you control. The exact location and access rights are agreed before setup.
