Top 3 Tips For Excellent Sharepoint Backup

Like CRM systems, databases, or your personal email, SharePoint is one business application that you shouldn’t miss in your data protection strategy, especially if you care about your business continuity. However, due to its scalability and multiple deployment options, backing up SharePoint can be a challenge. To help you out, here are 3 simple tips to help you protect this versatile infrastructure:

1. Back up your databases using SQL-aware solution: The solution should be capable of backing up individual databases, truncate logs, as well as restore the databases in recovery, no-recovery, and standby modes.

2. Back up your Operating system: For reliable recovery, backing up your SQL databases is not enough. Use disk imaging solutions to back up both your databases and entire nodes

3. Lastly, always strive to perform offline back up before you opt for major infrastructural changes. Doing this allows you to roll back your entire setup to an operational state in case you experience any infrastructure change failure.
