Back-up is a good practice.
You should regularly back-up your Data to be able to retrieve it is case of a crash.
How often ? It just depends on your need ... Just ask yourself : what is acceptable to loose in case of a crash ? 1 day, 1 week ?
You should also always back-up your Data before any application upgrade... in case of ...
So, how to back-up ? The simplest way is to use phpMyAdmin export capacity, using "SQL" format, saving result to a file.
Then you'll be able to import Data from this exported file.
hints :
- be sure to use UTF-8 charset when exporting / importing.
- you cannot import into a full Database (with existing Data) :
=> either you truncate the tables before import
(you must then assure to import Data into a structure of the same version of application !)
=> or you drop the tables before import
=> or you export data including 'Drop tables'
- regularly test your back-up files, trying to restore it on an empty Database
(I saw so many times back-up that were never tested, and could not be imported when needed...)
I was looking for backup solution provider companies in London. Though I know Intacore is best among them but wanted to know reviews of other readers.

Backup
Dear all,
for your productive envirnoment, we have daily dumps of all databases triggered with cronjob. We didn't have an outsourced centre for this service.
On my test environment I apply MySQLDumper (open source), because this is very flexible and is not to be maintained by our operations team.

Even I found Inta core most reliable and cost effective when it comes to backup.
I like all the posts here about the backup. I also got good solution here for the online data backup. But I think here you should post more tricks and tips for data handling. Thank you.
