Backup and Restore Drill

We prove your backups actually restore, measure how long it takes, and fix the gaps we find on the way.

7 working days

Revisions

One round, included

Ownership

Yours from day one

Overview

What this engagement is

Everyone has backups. Far fewer have restores. The difference shows up on the worst possible day, when someone discovers the nightly dump has been failing since March or that restoring 400GB takes eleven hours nobody budgeted for. We test yours for real: restore to an isolated environment, verify the data is complete and consistent, and time the whole thing. You get measured recovery figures rather than assumed ones, and a documented procedure someone else could follow at 3am.

Deliverables

What lands in your repositories

7 items
  • Audit of current backup coverage across databases, files and configuration
  • Full restore executed into an isolated environment
  • Data integrity verification after restore, including row counts and checksums
  • Measured recovery time and recovery point figures per system
  • Gap analysis covering anything not currently backed up
  • Restore runbook written step by step for use under pressure
  • Remediation plan with costs for closing the gaps found

Outcomes

What changes once it ships

Recovery time based on a real test rather than a guess

Systems nobody was backing up are discovered before they are needed

A restore procedure that works when the person who wrote it is unreachable

Process

How the 4 stages run

  1. 01

    Inventory

    every system is checked for what is backed up and how often

  2. 02

    Restore

    a real restore is performed into an isolated environment

  3. 03

    Verify

    data completeness and application function are confirmed

  4. 04

    Report

    measured figures, gaps and a remediation plan delivered

Booked most often by

  • Companies who have never tested a restore
  • Teams with recovery commitments in a customer contract
  • Businesses after an incident that exposed a backup gap

What we need from you

  • Access to backup storage and the systems in scope
  • A cloud account or environment we can restore into
  • Confirmation of what correct restored data should look like

These are collected in the technical brief that opens in your dashboard the moment payment clears. The clock starts when they arrive, not before.

Answers

Questions this engagement raises

Then we have found the single most valuable thing in the engagement, and remediation becomes the priority.

No. Restores go into an isolated environment. We only read from backup storage.

Quarterly for critical systems. Once the runbook exists your team can run it without us.

This is engineering work, not a physical product — nothing ships and there is no stock to run out of. Delivery is to the working days stated above, into systems you control, and the refund terms set out what happens if we miss the date.
