Why Your Database Needs a Backup Verification Strategy

from Database Tech with Fexingo: SQL, NoSQL, and Data Storage Conversations · host Fexingo

Episode 63 of Database Tech with Fexingo dives into a rarely discussed but critical topic: backup verification. Lucas and Luna explore why a leading fintech company lost 12 hours of transaction data despite having daily backups. They break down the difference between backup creation and backup validation, using the 2025 case of a major payment processor that discovered its six-month-old backups were corrupted. The hosts explain checksums, restore testing, and the '3-2-1 backup rule' with a twist. Tune in to learn why your backup strategy is only as good as your last verified restore. #BackupVerification #DatabaseBackups #DataIntegrity #Checksums #RestoreTesting #321BackupRule #FintechDisaster #DataLossPrevention #DatabaseTech #Technology #DataEngineering #SQL #NoSQL #DatabaseReliability #DisasterRecovery #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TechPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
