Storage & recovery

Keep your data.
Plan its recovery.

Choose your storage, review available backups and practice restoring your application.

Snapshots preserve an earlier version of your data A database cylinder, dated snapshot sheets and a separate recovery cylinder form a recovery sequence.
Snapshots preserve an earlier version of your data

Three separate decisions

Capacity, availability
and recovery.

Decide how much space you need, how the app stays available and how you restore data.

Capacity

Dedicated resources

  • Compute and storage are separate from other customers.
  • Allow space for records, indexes and growth.
Dedicated instances
Availability

An optional warm standby

  • Copies changes asynchronously and can lag behind.
  • Keep backups as well as the standby.
Understand failover
Recovery

Daily snapshots

  • Daily snapshots are the dedicated recovery baseline.
  • Check available copies and test a restore.
Backup and restore

Understand your configuration

Compare your
backup options.

Recovery features depend on your plan and instance settings.

Check availability in your instance settings.

Restore time varies. Test it with your data and record how long it takes.
