Backups

I’ve been having this conversation a lot recently .

The backup options will be expanded next week.

In particular using a faster process; mysqlsh.schemaDump() instead of mysqldump (The former is 20x quicker but less ‘portable’ than the latter.).

I’m also thinking about including stuff in human readable form. i.e. an excel of all your landlords, another of all properties, another of all tenancies etc. just so if Armageddon comes you have SOMETHING.

I’ll send an email next week with instructions on how your IT people can set it up as an automatic process. Nightly/weekly as you wish.

Just so you can’t ever be held hostage again

(The servers are being continually backed up automatically; the Microsoft Azure platform has that built in. A local backup is just for your own reassurance.)
