Week 6 Discussion QuestionDescribe and discuss at least two backup strategies. Discuss the use of cloud backup strategies, as well?Backup strategies normally combine different backup types. Some backup types need require more time than others to create the backup. A normal backup takes longest because it backs up all the selected files to produce a complete backup. It makes little difference whether the second backup is differential or incremental, but in the third and subsequent backups the difference starts to matter. If the second and third backups are differential, the third backup includes all files changed since the normal backup. However, if the second and third backups are incremental, the third backup includes only files changed since the second backup.Backup TypesSeveral different types of backup jobs are available to allow administrators to enable you to produce a backup strategy that maximizes efficiency, minimizes the amount of media used, and minimizes performance impact.Each file has an archive attribute, also called an archive bit or a backup marker which is set when the file is changed to indicate that it has been modified since the last backup. Some types of backup look for or clear this attribute, others do not. The following table summarises the backup types:Backup typeDescriptionNormalAll selected files and folders are backed up. Archive attribute is cleared if it exists (fast for restoring).CopyAll selected files and folders are backed up. Archive attribute is not cleared (fast for restoring).IncrementalOnly selected files and folders that have their archive attribute set are backed up and then archive markers are cleared.DifferentialOnly selected files and folders that have their archive attribute set are backed up but archive attributes are not cleared.DailyAll selected files and folders that have changed throughout the day are backed up. Archive attributes are ignored during the backup and are not cleared afterwards.Best Practices for BackupPlan your backup strategy. Develop a written backup plan that tells you: ...Think beyond just your office and its computers. ...Give highest priority to crucial data. ...Storing and protecting your backups. ...Think about how you will access critical data and files. ...Test your backups before you need them.This topic describes strategies you can use to establish appropriate backup guidelines. The strategies are:Complete database backupsIncremental database backupsTransition log backupsA backup scheduleUSE OF CLOUD BACKUP STRATEGIES:Cloud-based backup is an increasingly popular strategy for backing up data that involves sending a copy of the data over an internet connection to an off-site server. ... Hybrid clouds are frequently used for backup purposes because they relieve enterprises of the need to use a secondary data center. Cloud Backup is important, because data is so important to an organization, one of the major concerns in going to a cloud backup solution is ensuring sufficient control and monitoring. By using cloud backup changed and new data are backed up either daily or continuously into the cloud. Cloud backup solutions enable enterprises or individuals to store their data and computer files on the Internet using a storage service provider, rather than storing the data locally on a physical disk, such as a hard drive or tape backup. Cloud backup, also known as online backup, is a strategy for backing up data that involves sending a copy of the data over a proprietary or public network to an off-site server.Turning on iCloud Backup:Connect your device to a Wi-Fi network.Tap Settings > iCloud > Backup.Turn on iCloud Backup if it isn't already turned on.Make sure you are on a WiFi connection and tap Back Up Now.Check your backup by tapping Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage, and then select your device.When backing up to the cloud, it's important to take precautions against data loss. See how approaches like redundancy can bolster your backup strategy. While the cloud is generally considered a safe and reliable place to store data, cloud storage providers do lose or damage files. And it happens more often than you may think. Unless the customer has a cloud backup strategy in place, that missing data is lost forever. Cloud backup, also known as online backup, is a strategy for backing up data that involves sending a copy of the data over a proprietary or public network to an off-site server. The server is usually hosted by a third-party service provider, which charges the backup customer a fee based on capacity, bandwidth or number of users. In the enterprise, the off-site server might be owned by the company, but the chargeback method would be similar. Cloud-based backup is an increasingly popular strategy for backing up data that involves sending a copy of the data over an internet connection to an off-site server. There are many elements to cloud-based backups. Hybrid clouds are frequently used for backup purposes because they relieve enterprises of the need to use a secondary data center. With a hybrid cloud, an organization manages backup data on-site for restores with an additional copy stored in the cloud.Cloud-to-cloud backup, the practice of copying data that is stored on one cloud backup service to another cloud, is another emerging technology. And cloud disaster recovery (DR) is a component of a DR plan that involves maintaining copies of enterprise data in a cloud storage environment as a security measure. Cloud DR has evolved quite a bit in the last couple years, as virtualization allows users to run applications from cloud-hosted instances of virtual servers.But there are challenges to cloud-based backup, such as the concern that nothing is perfectly secure. And while cloud DR offers many benefits, it is still a developing technology and users should be cautious. With this Essential Guide, learn some of the pros and cons of cloud backup and DR, and receive expert advice about the evolving technology arena.Narrow down your cloud storage optionDespite there being many cloud services out there that offer free storage space, it makes sense to narrow down your primary cloud provider to just one service before trying to create a backup strategy. This serves to reduce complexity, and also makes it easier to ensure that your files are accounted for and backed up correctly.References:https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff741756.aspxhttps://searchdatabackup.techtarget.com/answer/Why-is-a-cloud-backup-strategy-necessary https://searchdatabackup.techtarget.com/definition/cloud-backuphttps://www.cio.com/article/2930779/cloud-computing/how-to-create-a-robust-backup-strategy-with-cloud-services.html
