Description

It will be important to run regular backups on the database in production. We should design, implement and document the disaster recovery process for the system - the main part to this will be backing up the contents of the database and knowing how to restore it in a new instance.

Acceptance Criteria

  • The contents of the database can be backed up using a script.
  • The contents of a backup can be restored to the database.
  • The process of backing up the system is documented.
  • The process of restoring the system is documented.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or database engine; begin by locating the database configuration and production deployment entry points. Establish how backups and restoration will be performed, then document both workflows. Done means the backup, restore, and disaster-recovery documentation satisfy all four acceptance criteria.
