DevOps Backup Service: Your Safety Net When It Counts
Many companies have exactly one DevOps expert. As long as that person is reachable, everything runs. On vacation, during illness or after a resignation, operations stall. Our DevOps Backup Service closes exactly that gap: we are your safety net when your own team is unavailable.
What we build: A working backup strategy is more than a cron job to another disk. We design and implement a backup concept for your systems: which data and configurations need to be backed up, at which intervals, how long to keep them, where the copies live separately from the primary system. We document every backup path so that in an emergency anyone can follow what needs to be done.
The decisive difference: tested restores. A backup that has never been restored is an assumption, not protection. Restore tests are therefore a fixed part of our work: we regularly run recoveries in an isolated environment, measure how long a restore takes, and document the result. You get a provable state, not a gut feeling.
What you get: A documented backup strategy, regular restore tests with a result log, and a practiced second pair of hands that knows your environment. Handovers only work when the person covering understands the systems. That is why we build up knowledge of your environment continuously, not only in an emergency.
When this fits you: The service is for companies with one or two internal DevOps people, for teams heading into vacation season, and for operations whose bus factor is one. It also helps if you have inherited backup paths nobody really knows, or after an incident in which the backup failed when it mattered: we rebuild the path so it is verifiable.
How we work: We start with an analysis of your current backup situation: what is backed up, how, how often, and whether it has ever been tested. From that comes an implementation plan. After that we operate the backup paths and the regular restore checks. Whether that runs in the on-demand model or with an agreed quota depends on your situation; the models are described on the services overview.
Backups and cloud environments are closely linked: copies belong separately from the primary system, often in a second environment. You can read how we set this up cleanly on our cloud infrastructure page. The same applies to shop operators: shop data and orders need particularly well-tested recovery paths.
