Need recommendation of Data Recovery Process

Hi Everyone,

     Is there any recommendation of data recovery process for a online web application (if the application server is down.) Thanks a lot!

Hi,

Perhaps you want to explain more about data recovery process? It's quite a huge word w/o understanding more about what you're trying to do.

   Basically, what I wanna gain for data recovery process is to have minimal impact on the application/production data when the server is down for some unexpected reasons.

    I have heard of disk mirroring for application data backup or a backup server. I just wanna know whether there are other options so I can do a evaluation on the options.

 

The first step is to determine the worth of your data/application. The value of the "paranoia" implementation should not exceed that, or even come close; If your solution is more expensive than the thing you're protecting, you know there is a problem.

Come back when you know the worth. As well as your SLA requirements (very important)

For example, this very web site really doesn't carry business or financial value, so we really cannot justify a tape-backup and offsite storage (which is typically cheap solution actually). The server itself is the source control repository server, but us developers have cached copies on our own harddisks. The database is backed up every day + logs every 6 hours, onto the same disk, but they are physically mirrored. Once in awhile we'd FTP the backup copy elsewhere "offsite" but that's just about it.

Dear Apex bro,

Searched the Internet and found a company called Data Savers -(a data recovery company, which is offering cheap, cost effective recovery ..so i read ..www.data-savers.net/client). You can find their e-mail there. I e-mailed them and to my surprised, they replied to my query. Although I did not proceed with any data recovery with them. Sharing is the best way to go I guess.

I agree with you Kenneth ' Sharing is the best way'

Well I am aware of one more data recovery company its Stellar Information. I have used their product Stellar Phoenix FAT & NTFS data recovery software found it good. They also deals in data recovery services, hope they might be helpful.
