Preventing Data Loss

CCS offers Backup Software and Hardware for Windows, and Linux/UNIX environments.  See Backup Assist for Windows and MicroLite for Linux/UNIX. For our detailed recommendations look through the rest of this article.

Regular backups for your servers and desktops is the best protection against data loss.  In business operations,  backups before posting procedures that change to several of your systems key databases is the best way to protect your system.

If the procedures you perform produce unexpected results, you can restore to the point before posting, rather than trying to repair each database individually. We suggest daily strategic backups for your servers and regular backups for your desktops on a less frequent basis.

CCS can help you add custom procedures to safely automate backup and posting cycles for end of day unattended operations.  Backups are sometimes left undone because of the time required, if they are attended.  Automation removes this concern.

CCS Experience

Considering this, CCS keeps track of the tools that will help our customers backup their systems.  We sell, recommend and support many products in this category.  Some of the products we strongly recommend you consider are indicated below.  Overall, we will help you with most commercial software.  Server administration is a more complex topic.  We suggest this be discussed on an individual basis.  Contact us to arrange this.
 


 

Shareware vs. Licensed Software

We suggest that you treat shareware and freeware products with more caution than commercial products.  Your business systems are at greater risk with these types of products, even if they seem to be very desirable.
