Backups¶

Our backup schedule:

• Full Backup of Repository, Website and Configuration Data
  • Every Saturday
• MySQL Databases-Only
  • Twice Every Day

All backups are immediately uploaded off-site to secure against hardware failure.
Our server is also equipped with RAID-1 to protect our data against single-point-of-failure.
Before any maintenance, we backup the affected data aswell.

We are looking into providing our hosted Projects with private backups of their data.

Donations¶

The costs for running the server powering dev-heaven.net, are 99 EUR a month.
We offer our service freely, but if you would like to support us, please feel free to Donate.
