The 2 most neglected items associated with databases are:Backup
and recovery planning Disaster recovery planning
Why? It won’t happen to me… It has never happened
before… The priority is never high enough…
Do you backup your data? How do you backup your data? Do
you store your backup media off site? What happens if a
fire destroys all of your hardware? The hardware can be
replaced, but your data cannot without a solid backup and
recovery plan in place.
Since your data drives your business, you must always be
sure that your data is protected and recoverable. Backup
and recovery / disaster recovery planning must be a priority
in order to ensure that in any event in which you lose your
data, it will be recoverable and the negative impacts to
your organization and its customers will be minimal, if
not completely eliminated.
