Aggregated main logic. Real projects add error handling, retries and logging around every step.

The problem

A backup you have never restored is a hope, not a backup. Manual backups are also the first thing to be forgotten.

  1. Exports run on a schedule and automatically before every significant change.
  2. Each backup is encrypted, versioned and kept off the server it came from.
  3. A regular test restore into a scratch environment proves the backup is usable.
  4. Failures raise an alert immediately; retention rules remove old copies safely.
