Tomorrow, March 31st, is the official World Backup Day, a day intended to remind us all of the importance of taking backups for the sake of data continuity. While this kind of day can be a valuable reminder of a critical best practice, we contend that your awareness of your backup (and the associated maintenance of it) should not be limited to a single day.
Let’s go over some essential backup best practices that you need to keep in mind for your business’ data.

While it might not be possible to get your comprehensive backup up and running in time for World Backup Day, it’s like we said before—every day is an important day to have a backup.
