(Context: Software, Technology Management)
Server backups are taken daily for operational recovery. They can be used to recover server OS and application components in case of a data loss event. Server backups are data agnostic and all types of data on the server are treated the same. It is possible to recover a file from a backup but not possible to delete a file from a backup. Server backups should be retained for sufficient time the minimum time required for operational recovery.
