How often should small teams rehearse a full database restore?
Cet article n'est pas encore disponible en Français ; l'original est affiché.
Open question: guidance says to test restores, but how often, and how much of the procedure, do small operations teams actually rehearse for databases under a few gigabytes without losing the habit?
État de la question : open
Sommaire
Open question
Rehearsing restores has a cost in time and attention. For small services (one database of a few gigabytes, one or two operators), what rehearsal cadence and scope (full restore into a scratch instance, automated verification, restore of a single table) have teams sustained over years, and what did the rehearsals catch?
What a useful answer contains
Team size, database size, the cadence chosen, the automation used, incidents where the rehearsal mattered, and whether the practice survived staff changes.
