Windows-Backup is a Shell library typically used in Backup Recovery, Continuous Backup applications. Windows-Backup has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

these are backup and restore scripts designed for use on windows xp,vista, and 7. i originally developed these to simplify backups for my family. at that point, i had a few goals: 1)backup everything that might be of value (i.e. the whole user profile) 2)the backup must simply be a copy of the directories and files, to simplify restore, especially of partial files. 3)quick. only copy files that had changed between runs. we have 100's of gbs of data and it shouldn't be copied every time we backup. 4)simple. something that my mother would be able to run (and would run). at the top of both scripts, you will notice an area called "configuration". you may want to modify these variables to suit your needs, though they are likely general enough for most use. the backup script, in particular, includes options to backup a specific thunderbird profile to an additional spot. if you use thunderbird for your email, you may consider using that. there is also an option to double backup pictures. both of these options are disabled by default. i have tried to keep the dependencies of these scripts as minimal as possible. however, due to the total lack of useful utilities on windows, there are a few dependencies:

How to disable azure cosmos db continious backup

I enabled the Azure cosmos DB continuous backup for one of my Cosmos DBs.
How can I disable it? It just says you have successfully enrolled in continuous backup.

I am not sure if you have seen this message in the portal when you created the account/also mentioned in the doc

"You will not be able to switch between the backup policies after the account has been created"

since you need to select either "Periodic" or "Continuous" at the creation of Cosmos Account, it becomes mandatory.

Update:

You will not see the above in portal anymore, you can Switch from "Periodic" to "Continous" on an existing account and that cannot be reverted. You can read more here.

QUESTION

Consistency of Continuous backup of Azure Cosmos DB

Asked 2021-Nov-25 at 17:15

What would be the consistency of the continuous backup of the write region if the database is using bounded staleness consistency? Will it be equivalent to strong consistent data assuming no failovers happened?

Thanks Guru

Backups made from any secondary region will have data consistency defined by the guarantees provided by the consistency level chosen. In the case of strong consistency, all secondary region backups will have completely consistent data.

Bounded staleness will have data that may have stale or inconsistent data inside the defined staleness window (minimum 300 seconds or 100k writes). Outside of that staleness window the data will be consistent.

Data for the weaker consistency levels will have no guarantees for consistency from backups in secondary regions.

QUESTION

Mongo atlas recommends cloud provider snaphots for backup - Is it effective?

Asked 2020-May-19 at 10:12

MongoDB has deprecated the continuous back up of data. It has recommended using CPS (Cloud provider snapshots). As far as I understood, snapshots isn't really going to be effective compared to continuous backup coz, if system breaks, then we can only be able to restore the data till the previous snapshot which isn't gonna make the database up-to-date or close to it atleast.

Am I missing something here in my understanding?

Cloud provider snapshots can be combined with point in time restore to give the recovery point objective you require. With oplog based restores you can get granularity of one second.
