What do we need it for?
The necessity of backup comes to light only after a very important report or database disappeared unexpectedly or turned out damaged. The price of such a loss is individual but the fact that data must be backed up becomes clear and apparent for every CIO.

Any company has a network with several data types to be archived and each of them is archived in its own way. Generally, it’s necessary to archive the data of the AD, DNS, DHCP and other servers, SQL databases, custom files and DBF bases. We can include here boot drive imaging as well. Modern software servers have native tools for all of this, they are more or less unified, handy and suitable almost for everybody, although they differ in implementation and starting methods. If someone wants to learn about it more, he should look it up on the Internet using the keywords “shadowing”, “NTBackup”, “disk imaging”, and “SQL scripts for archiving”. In this article I’ll tell you about a fast and cheap method of custom files and DFB databases archiving.
