SQL Backup

Today virtually every field of business relies on SQL databases, where SQL stands for Structured Query Language, a language that is used to control DBMS. SQL is a technological standard, and therefore relational databases are frequently called SQL databases. By creating backups of SQL databases you ensure safety of your business data, saving it from various events of data loss.

The technology of SQL backup doesn’t allow backing up databases through common copying of database files, because a running database keeps all information in the memory of an SQL server. Backup assumes the use of the hot SQL backup technology which requires some advanced IT skills, or can be done with special software, such as Handy Backup.

Handy Backup is a professional SQL database backup utility for Windows Servers. With our software you can automate backups of your databases, independently of if they are running or stopped.

SQL Database Backup Software

In Handy Backup, we’ve taken great efforts to develop rich database backup-related functionality:

• Common Database Backup plug-in can be used to automatically back up SQL database tables via standard ODBC connections. This is a very powerful function that enables you to back up databases located on both local and network servers, though it is limited to tables only (doesn’t support types of data, variables, stored procedures, etc.) It works great for backing up MySQL, PostgreSQL, and other systems.

• Microsoft SQL Server Backup. You can back up MS SQL through ODBC, but it will be more effective and accurate if you take advantage of the special MS SQL Backup plug-in. It gives great results, but requires the program to be installed on the server with the database. More about MSSQL Backup plug-in...
• Oracle Backup. Oracle Database also supports SQL queries and can be backed up via ODBC. And similarly to MS SQL backup, we provide a separate function which gives much more accurate results, but requires installation of Handy Backup on the local server. More about Oracle Backup plug-in...

The above list is far from the full list of data that can be backed up with Handy Backup. See the full list of features...
